Seafood Gumbo
Instructions:
  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Gradually whisk in flour to create a roux, stirring constantly until the mixture turns a deep, chocolatey brown color.
  2. Add diced onion, bell pepper, celery, and minced garlic to the pot, stirring to combine. Cook until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
  3. Gradually pour in seafood or chicken broth, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Add Cajun seasoning, cayenne pepper, and bay leaves to the pot, adjusting the seasoning to taste.
  4. Bring the gumbo to a gentle simmer, then add sliced Andouille sausage and okra, if using. Allow the gumbo to simmer for 30 minutes to an hour, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. Add peeled and deveined shrimp, crab meat, and crawfish tails to the pot, simmering until the seafood is cooked through and tender.
  6. If desired, stir in file powder to thicken the gumbo and add a subtle earthy flavor.
  7. Serve the Seafood Gumbo hot, ladled over cooked rice and garnished with chopped green onions.
