Total Time 50 minutes

Number Of Ingredients 20

¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 onion, chopped
1 large green bell pepper, diced
1 stalk celery, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 14-ounce can whole tomatoes, drained and chopped
10 okra pods, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch-long pieces (1 cup)
½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 bay leaf
½ cup long-grain white rice
6 ounces medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast, or thigh meat, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 ounces andouille or kielbasa sausage, thinly sliced
Salt, to taste
Hot sauce, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat a heavy cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the flour turns a deep golden color, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer the flour to a plate and let cool. (There will be a strong aroma similar to burnt toast. Be careful not to let the flour burn; reduce the heat if flour seems to be browning too quickly.) Alternately, toast the flour in a pie plate in a 400 degrees F oven for 20 minutes.
  • Heat oil in a heavy stockpot over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, celery and garlic; sauté until the onions are lightly browned, about 7 minutes. Stir in the toasted flour. Gradually stir in broth and bring to a simmer, stirring. Add tomatoes, okra, pepper, thyme, oregano, cayenne and bay leaf. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Stir in rice and cook, covered, for 15 minutes longer.
  • Add shrimp, chicken and sausage; simmer until the shrimp is opaque inside, the chicken is no longer pink and the rice is tender, about 5 minutes longer. Discard the bay leaf and season with salt. Ladle into bowls and serve with hot sauce.
