Gumbo is a great way to make use of chicken stock. You can make a chicken gumbo or sausage and shrimp gumbo using chicken stock. The result is Who Whee Cajun!
Brainy Chicken Gumbo from stock...
How do you make chicken, shrimp/sausage gumbo from chicken stock? Take out a pot, saute onion and red peppers in olive oil. Than take a left over soup stock (meat and any vegetables removed), add to the pot with onion and peppers (you can also use tetra packed chicken stock... about 4 cups.
To that stock, add either precooked cubed chicken or sausage/shrimp along with fresh chunks of zucchini and or okra. Let simmer while you prepare the rice.
Lastly, boil separately 1-2 cups of white long grain rice (amount depends on dinner guests). When tender, drain and put it all together in a bowl (rice and gumbo) ... next, put out the Louisiana hot sauce and get ready to dig in.
