Cooking Steps

1
  • Before starting, preheat the broiler to high.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Core, then cut green pepper into 1/4-inch pieces. 
  • Cut celery into 1/4-inch pieces. 
  • Thinly slice green onion. 
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic. 
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
2
  • Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Set aside.
  • On a clean surface, pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season with half the Cajun Spice Blend, salt and pepper. 
  • Add chicken thighs and 2 tsp (4 tsp) oil to the prepared baking sheet. Broil in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min, flipping once, until cooked through.**
3
  • Meanwhile, heat a medium pot over medium. When the pot is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then minced garlic and rice. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until fragrant.
  • Add 1 cups (2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 17-19 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
4
  • Heat a large pot over medium heat. When hot, add 3 tbsp (6 tbsp) garlic spread to the pot, then swirl to melt.
  • Add flour and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water. Whisk, cooking for 1-3 min, scraping brown bits from the bottom of the pot, until mixture is light bown and smells toasted. Transfer to a small bowl. 
  • Increase heat to medium-high. Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chorizo. Cook for 3-4 min, breaking up chorizo into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.** Season with salt and pepper.
5
  • Add peppers, yellow onions, celery and remaining Cajun Spice Blend to the pot. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring constantly, until veggies are tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, once chicken is cooked through, cut into 1-inch pieces. 
  • Add reserved flour mixture, chicken, broth concentrate and 2 1/2 cups (4 cups) of water. Stir to combine, scraping up brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cook for 6-7 min, until slightly thickened.** Season with salt and pepper.
6
  • While gumbo simmers, thinly slice green onion. 
  • Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in remaining garlic spread and half the green onions. 
  • Divide rice between plates. 
  • Top with gumbo.
  • Sprinkle remaining green onions over top.
