Used recipe by Emeril. Turned out pretty good in my opinion!

Started out by browning the chicken:



Removed the chicken and added butter and flour to make roux:



In with the vegetables:



Added a bottle of beer:





Added hot sauce, worcestershire, brown sugar and chicken stock. Added the chicken back in to cook for a while :



Pulled the chicken apart and goes back in with some fresh chopped parsley:



Ready to eat:

None of that looks like etouffee. It looks yummy, but I think you made a chicken gumbo.

Agreed. I got a little impatient on that.

Looks good for a chicken dish. I've made Paul Prudhomme's version from his first cookbook and it's good, also. Definitely has a flavor similar to his gumbo, but more of a smothered chicken dish. Recommend.

Is the difference between gumbo and etouffee the roux (brown vs blonde)?

Maybe butter roux and beer is the difference. I would destroy it regardless.

For me, butter blonde roux. Just enough to get the raw flour flavor out.

And add a little tomato sauce to give it depth and that awesome orange color.

I think everyone agrees the one thing they would call it is "eaten."

Would destroy.
