chicken gumbo

Louisiana okra soup

Chicken gumbo is a hearty Louisiana stew built on a dark roux, featuring chicken as the primary protein along with the "holy trinity" of onion, celery, and bell pepper.

The dish typically includes okra or filé powder as a thickener and is served over rice.

We ordered chicken gumbo and cornbread.
