Chicken Shrimp Gumbo image

Very simple, easy and delicious Gumbo. First gumbo I tried and we have made many times with family and friends. Recipe was originally given to us by another friend! Note: We normally make this on the more bland side and then keep a bottle of Tabasco sauce around to spice things up to our liking!

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/3 cup green pepper (chopped)
1/3 cup onion (chopped)
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Cook green pepper and onion in butter in a large saucepan until tender but not brown. Stir in flour. Add tomatoes, cooked chicken, tsp of the salt, thyme, and hot pepper sauce. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

This gumbo was a bit spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. I will definitely be making it again, but I will use less cayenne pepper next time.
