Ingredients

Chicken and Smoked Sausage Gumbo

One of the all-time most popular recipes on the site! This homemade gumbo is SO good and will take you right to Louisiana!

"Really good! I used less cayenne than called for because I’m sensitive to spicy foods but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Tastes like New Orleans!"

- Jeannie

Chicken and Sausage Gumbo

This recipe uses tomatoes, and there is quite the debate about if they should be used in gumbo or not over on the page! Hint: it depends on if you think of it as creole or cajun!
