Ingredients

- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 3/4 cup (120 g) chopped onion
- 1/2 cup (60 g) diced celery
- 10 ounces (280 g) frozen sliced okra, thawed
- 1 pound (455 g) boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut in 1/2-inch
- 1 quart (960 ml) chicken broth
- 1 can (14 1/2 ounces, or 410 g) diced tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon (3.8 g) chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 pound (455 g) andouille sausage links
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml)

Method
- Melt the butter in a big soup pot over medium-low heat and add the garlic, onion, and celery
- Saute them together for 5 minutes or so until the onion is just starting to soften
- Add the thawed sliced okra and the cubes of chicken and continue to saute until the chicken is white all over
- Add the chicken broth, the can of diced tomatoes, parsley, thyme, bay leaf, cayenne, and pepper, bring the whole thing up to a simmer, turn the heat down, and simmer for an hour
- When the hours up, put the andouille links in a skillet over medium-high heat
- Brown them all over-prick the casings all over with a fork as you do this
- When the sausages are browned, remove them from the skillet to your cutting board and slice 1/2 inch 1 cm thick
- You can leave the slices round or cut each round in half! Add the sausage slices to the pot
- Ladle a little of the broth into the skillet, stir it around to dissolve the nice brown crusty stuff, and pour it back into the pot
- Add the worcestershire sauce and lemon juice to the soup and stir it up
- Let the whole thing simmer for another 15 minutes or so
- Now check-is the level of heat right? Or do you want it hotter? If so, stir in a little hot pepper sauce
- Thicken the broth just a tad with guar or xanthan, remove bay leaf, and serve
- Now, you get to decide how you want to serve your gumbo

- But the traditional way to serve gumbo is ladled over rice, and you certainly may serve yours over cauli-rice
