- 1 pound sliced andouille sausage or sliced pepperoni
- 2 cans chicken broth

- 1/4 cup finely chopped parsley, finely chopped
Method
- In a 6-quart pot, heat oil and fry chicken until it is golden brown.
- Remove chicken, cut up into pieces when cooled down and set aside.
- To make the roux, leave oil in pot and add flour making a thick paste.
- Stir constantly until golden brown.
- Watch closely and stir constantly because roux's are easily burned.
- Add vegetables to roux and let them sweat until soft.
- Add andouille, chicken pieces along with the broth.
- Salt and pepper, to taste, and allow to simmer on low heat for 1 1/2 hours.
- Stir occasionally to keep roux from sticking to the bottom of pot and burning.
- Remove from heat and add green onions and parsley.
- Serve over rice.
- Any leftovers are delicious after freezing.
- Enjoy!
- Note: you can substitute chicken for quail, rabbit, squirrel, duck or seafood!
