Note: This recipe requires file powder – go buy some if you don’t have it in your pantry!
In a Dutch oven, melt butter and saute onion, celery, pepper, and garlic with kosher salt for 7 minutes. Add chicken stock, cayenne and black pepper. Cover and simmer.
Slice sausage and brown in a skillet, about 10 minutes. Remove it from the skillet and add to gumbo along with the cooked chicken.
In the same skillet, melt 1/4 cup butter. Whisk in the flour, heat and stir the roux for 3 minutes. Add to gumbo along with file powder. Stir well. Add the shrimp, turn off the heat, and let sit 10 minutes before serving. Serve over rice.

Holy Cow! This was crazy good. I made it tonight for a little Mardi Gras get-together and it was a hit. It is definitely going in my recipe box for future use.

First of all, this is BOMB.COM!! So good. I added apple sausage and some turkey sausage–just wonderful. Thank you!

Do you think it would make much difference if I substitute shrimp for more chicken and sausage? I don’t like shrimp (I’m crazy, I know).
I’m not like a super experienced cook, I bake more often than anything.
