I have a rotisserie chicken and I was going to make typical chicken soup, but I was wondering if anyone has a recipe for gumbo. I have never made it.
Chicken Gumbo sounds good too, but let me suggest
Chicken Bog! A good southern chicken & rice recipe I make for tailgating during football season.
Ingredients
1 3 pound chicken, quartered
1 pound smoked link sausage (perhaps smoked turkey sausage)
1 White onion, chopped
1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
2 teaspoons Seasoned Salt (Lawry's)
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground red pepper
3 Bay leaves
8 cups of water
3 cups raw white rice (I mix white rice, yellow rice and long grain rice)
Directions
Slice the sausage into 1/2 inch pieces.
In a stockpot, combine chicken, sausage, onion, butter, seasonings and bay leaves.
Add the water, bring to a boil, cover and cook at a low boil for 40 minutes.
Remove chicken from pot and allow to cool slightly.
Pick the meat off the bones, discard bones and skin. (you want small and medium bite size chunks of chicken)
Add the rice to the pot when chicken comes out and bring to a boil, stirring well.
Boil for 10 minutes then reduce the heat and cover the pot and simmer for 10 more minutes or until rice is done.
Remove the bay leaves and return the chicken to the pot, mix well.
Eat!
