Directions:
- Make the roux:.
- Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Add flour and mix, stirring constantly until the roux turns the color of a penny. Don't let the roux burn! This will take at least 10 minutes, but fear not - you will be using a crockpot to finish the work!
- Add roux to bottom of crockpot.
- Whisk in chicken broth and let cool while prepping the chicken and Trinity.
- Prepare the chicken and Trinity:.
- Melt the butter over medium heat in the same heavy-bottomed pan (rinse it out first).
- Add thighs and sear on both sides, sprinkling generously with Cajun seasoning.
- Once nicely browned on the outside, cut the thighs into bite-size pieces and add to roux mix.
- To the butter/brown bits pan, add the Trinity: onion, green pepper and garlic.
- Saute over medium heat until softened and fragrant.
- Add to the crockpot.
- Add the rest of the ingredients except the rice to the crockpot, stir, and cook on LOW for 8-10 hours.
- During the last 20 minutes of cooking (while you're making the rice), uncover the crockpot to allow the gumbo to thicken.
