Ingredients

  • 1 boneless chicken thigh
  • 2 smoked sausages sliced into rounds
  • ½ onion diced
  • 1 celery stalk chopped
  • ½ tbsp garlic
  • 50 ml vegetable oil
  • 50 grams flour
  • 3 cup chicken stock
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • salt & pepper
  • 250 grams frozen french fries
  • 1 stalk spring onion chopped for garnish

Instructions

  • Spray a frying pan with oil spray and place the chicken thigh skin side down over medium high heat.
  • Allow the skin to turn brown and crispy, then flip it and cook on the other side for about 3 minutes.
  • Add the sausage to the pan and allow to brown.
  • Remove both from the pan and chop the chicken into bite size pieces. Set aside.
  • Add the onions, celery and garlic (and more oil if needed) and cook for 5 minutes until the vegetables become soft. Remove from pan and set aside.
  • Over medium heat, add vegetable oil to the pan and whisk in the flour. Keep stirring until the mixture (roux) turns brown but not burnt. Lower heat if necessary.
  • Pour in the broth and continue whisking to incorporate the roux.
  • Now add back the sausage, chicken and vegetables. Season with salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Simmer for about 1 hour.
  • To make the fries, preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Spread fries on cookie sheet or baking pan.
  • Bake for 20 minutes until crisp and browned.
  • Remove from the oven and place the fries on a serving plate.
  • Top with the gumbo mixture and a sprinkle of green onions. Enjoy!
