Stir every 15 to 20 mins. My desired color is a medium-dark caramel). Once done, set aside.32oz of Okra cut-- not too thin and still round(spread okra on a baking pan, spread an even amount of olive oil on the okra, place in the oven. Bake at 375 until slime is fully cooked out. This usually takes around 45 minutes to an hour 25. Try to check every fifteen minutes and stir to avoid the okra getting burned). Once done set aside2 lbs of chicken thighs, boneless and skinless. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and some cajun seasoning like tony's chacherie.(Once chicken is seasoned, place in a baking pan and let it bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes at 375 degrees). Once done set aside Gumbo time:1 large white onion-- chopped4-6 stalks of celery--chopped1 large red bell pepper-- chopped1 large green bell pepper-- chopped(optional)Smoked Turkey meat with bone still in-- you're looking for a smoked turkey leg, or smoked turkey necks. This will add immense flavor to your broth/roux.12 ounces of Andouille Sausage-- or closest like sausage2 lbs of shrimp-- peeled and deveined-- set aside in a container-- keep them cooled or iced.96 ounces of your favorite stock-- you can make your own, but really no need. A good stock from the grocery store can work, and save you time from this already lengthy preparation Get a large and deep pot, place a little oil in it and bring it to medium-hot heat.Once the pot is temp ready-- place onion, celery, and bell peppers in the large and deep pot. Do not add garlic just yet. Monitor the pot and make sure you are not burning the vegetablesLet this cook down for about 12-15 minutes. Keep occasionally stirring until onions began to carmelize. Add garlic now. Keep an eye and occasionally stir for about 7-10 minutes.Take a cup of your stock and add it to your baked flower in a bowl. Whisk until smooth and without lumps.Add this mixture into your large pot with veggies.Stir and mix with the veggies and let this cook for about 5 minutes or so.Add your smoked turkey leg or turkey necks into the pot.Add stock until the pot is around 60 percent full-- we don't want to overfill the pot-- because we have a lot more to add into the gumbo.Stir the pot, get the mixture of the roux to gel smoothly with the water. Get this to a medium boil.Add Okra to the potNow is a great time to season your gumbo with tony's, garlic powder, pepper, hot sauce, garlic powder, to your preference. Do not add salt yet.Let this cook-- pot covered preferred, for about 45 minutes to an hour, occasionally stirring and checking in on the pot. Adding in more stock if needed. Keeping your pot a little more than half full.Bring Pot to a medium to low heatAdd sliced, round andouille sausage to the potChop baked chicken into medium to medium large sized chunks, once done-- add to the potAdd more stock if needed.Let this cook for about 30 minutes.Add your shrimp last. They will not take a very long time to cook in the gumbo. Ten to 15 minutes should be greatOptional, but once shrimp are done, turn off heat, and let the gumbo rest for 10 minutes. Add 16 ounces of ice cold water to the pot. Stir it in and let it sit for another 5 to 10 minutes. Salt to taste.Serve with steamed riceAt least 5 to 7 cloves of garlic-- chopped1 cup of stock of your choice Support Spilled Milk Podcast!Molly's SubstackMatthew's Bands: Early to the Airport and Twilight DinersProducer Abby's WebsiteListen to our spinoff show Dire DesiresJoin our reddit Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
