DIRECTIONS

1.

To make roux:

  • Oven Method -  Brown flour in oven on a cookie sheet (ungreased) at 400 degrees F for 15-12 minutes or until flour is a peanut butter color.
    Stir occasionally and watch closely because it browns quickly. (See variation for making roux in Notes section.)

2.

To make rice:

  • Place brown rice in a steamtable pan. Add hot water to each pan.
  • Add salt to each pan and mix until well combined.
  • Steam for approximately 45 minutes or until tender and fluffy. Check at 30 minutes of cooking time for water absorption. If needed, add more water.
  • Cover, and place in warmer until ready to serve.

CCP:  Hold and maintain product at a minimum temperature of 135 degrees F. Check temperature every 30 minutes.

3.

Heat oil in a tilt skillet or steam-jacketed kettle over medium heat.

4.

Add onion, celery, green pepper, okra, and garlic powder and sauté 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender.

5.

Sprinkle roux (browned in step 1), thyme, Creole spice blend and salt over sautéed vegetables mixture.
Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly until mixture thickens.

6.

Add chicken broth slowly to sautéed vegetable mixture. Add next 4 ingredients (through tomatoes). Bring to a boil.
Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes.

7.

Pour chicken and sausage gumbo in half-size steamtable pan (12" X 10" X 4"). For 50 servings, use 2 steamtable pans.

CCP:  Heat to 165 degrees F or higher for 15 seconds at the completion of the cooking process.

8.

Portion rice with 4 ounce spoodle or #8 scoop (1/2 cup). Serve gumbo with a 6 ounce ladle (3/4 cup) over rice. Each portion of gumbo and rice provides 2 oz. eq. meat/meat alternate, 1 oz. eq. whole grain, 1/8 cup red/orange vegetable and 3/8 cup other vegetable.

CCP:  Hold and maintain product at a minimum temperature of 135 degrees F.  Check temperature every 30 minutes. Leftovers should be covered, labeled, and dated.  Quick chill within 6 hours to 41 degrees or lower.

Production Notes

Variation for Making Roux:  Braising Pan/Tilting Skillet Method- Brown flour in braising pan over medium to high heat.  Stir constantly with a wire whisk.  Lower temperature setting if flour begins to brown too quickly. Cook for about 10 minutes or until flour is slightly brown in color.  Continue with Step 2 for making gumbo.

Use commodity products when available.

If raw poultry is used in place of diced, cooked chicken, thaw poultry under refrigeration [41 degrees F) and fully cook before adding to recipe.
