Directions: |
Directions:Place chicken pieces and gizzards in large pot with at least 1 gallon hot water. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic salt. Boil gently uncovered.
Boil sausage in a separate pot to cook out the grease. Discard water and add sausage to chicken pot.
Make a roux in a heavy iron skillet, using shortening and flour. Cook long and low, stirring constantly, until mixture is chocolate brown. (If you burn it, throw it out and start again!!)
Add roux to chicken pot and mix in. Add onion, celery, and green pepper (the holy trinity) to the pot and mix in. Add giblet gravy and chicken broth to pot and stir.
Simmer gently for at least 1 hour..."until it's gumbo," stirring occasionally. Serve over rice and garnish with green onion tops and parsley. |
