  • 5 TBS butter

  • 4 large celery stalks sliced small
  • 1/2 bell pepper diced
  • 1 cup fresh okra sliced *optional
  • 4 garlic cloves diced
  • 3-4 cups chicken or beef stock I use the stock from the shredded chicken

Instructions
 

Shredded Chicken

  • Place 1.5 lbs. of raw chicken in large stock pot on medium-high heat.
  • Fill with about 6 cups of water, covering all of the chicken, add 2 tsp of sea salt.
  • Cover and bring to a boil, turn down and let simmer for 45 minutes. Turn off and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Drain, saving 4 cups of the chicken stock, and shred. Set aside.

Sausage and Shrimp

  • Place sliced andouille sausage in the same stock pot, on medium heat, browning the sausage.
  • When sausage is browned, add shrimp cooking until pink. Place in separate bowl and set aside.

Gluten Free Roux

  • In the same large stock pot, melt butter on low-medium heat and bring to a simmer.
  • Whisk in Namaste gluten free flour making sure all clumps are gone.
  • Allow to simmer on low heat until a light brown color. Do not over cook! Gluten free flour will get gummy/lumpy unlike regular flour.

Putting all the Gumbo together

  • Add diced onion, sliced celery, bell pepper, okra, and garlic to the roux. Cook stirring often until vegetables are tender.
  • When vegetables are tender stir in all ready cooked sausage and shrimp.
  • Add 3-4 cups of water (depending on how much liquid you like) and seasoning.
  • Stir in shredded chicken. Let all ingredients simmer together for about 10 minutes.
