# Chicken and Sausage Gumbo Recipe | Made In - Made In

A classic Cajun stew, this gumbo recipe is comfort food at its finest. When cooked in an Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven, the flavors meld together beautifully.

For most, gumbo typifies New Orleanian cajun-creole food, with an ingredient list including many of its most identifiable hallmarks: andouille sausage, the holy trinity (onions, celery, and green bell pepper), and Tony’s, among others. Its name is derived from a West African word for okra, but in terms of technique it’s very French—a carefully developed roux lays the foundation for flavor, and the holy trinity is really just a modified mirepoix. Both here and in the recipe for seafood gumbo, the Dutch Oven’s heavy construction protects your roux from scorching and allows the ingredients to meld together slowly for the deepest flavor. If you’d like to save time, you may use the shredded meat from a rotisserie chicken (about 4 cups) and 8 cups store-bought low-sodium chicken broth. 

_Note: This recipe was developed using Diamond Crystal kosher salt. If using Morton’s, reduce salt by half._
