My chili recipe made it in many versions ago. I have revised my recipe. I added some ingrediaents from Firehouse chili's recipe and the recipe is now perfect. Until I revise it again...

Thank-you for doing these threads. I often pop in a lot of them. Please know, your hard work making them- is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the work.

I noticed a while back that there are surprisingly few seafood gumbo recipes in the collection.

There are a handful of recipes for chicken and sausage gumbo, three for gumbo z'herbes, and one for bacon and oyster, but Chauvin-Style Seafood Gumbo with Smothered Okra appears to have the market cornered for seafood gumbo.

Maybe most folks don't really use a recipe so haven't posted one. Someone needs to start taking notes and give us a good one.

This was posted a long time ago, but I thought it was worth including:

LSUDad's Pastalaya

1 1/2 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken Thigh Meat - Chopped
1 1/2 lbs Manda (or your favorite) smoked Pork Sausage - Sliced
1 1/2 lbs Boneless Boston Butt Pork - Cubed

1 1/2 lbs Onions - Chopped
4 Stalks of Celery - Chopped
2 Small Bell Peppers (Green, Red, Or Yellow) - Chopped
1 Bunch Of Green Onions (Shallots) - Chopped
1/2 cup Parsley Flakes
1 Tbs Sweet Basil
3 Bay Leaves
3 Tbs Fresh Garlic - Minced
14 oz Delmonte Cajun Recipe Stewed Tomatoes
1 1/2 lbs Luxury Spaghetti (No.3 )
4 1/2 cups Water

dash your Favorite Hot Sauce (Crystal or Tabasco)
dash Black Pepper
dash Cayenne Pepper
dash Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning
2 Tbsp Garlic Powder
2 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
2 Tbsp A1 Steak Sauce

1. Brown the chicken sprinkled with Tony's seasonings then remove from pot. Brown pork first, then boil down with some water till tender (about 30 minutes) and most of the water has reduced. Add sausage to pork and brown for about 10 minutes on medium heat while constantly stirring. Next add onions, bell pepper, celery, Cajun recipe, bay leaves, basil, parsley flakes, fresh garlic, and dash of hot sauce. Let cook down on medium heat while carefully stirring to prevent sticking. Vegetables will make extra water.

2. When cooked thoroughly and vegetables are wilted, add the water (4-1/2 cups) and return chicken to the pot. Next season mixture with pepper, garlic powder, Worcestershire, A1 and Tony's. Remember that pasta will absorb the seasonings, so make sure the water tastes just a little more salty and peppery than you would like. Next, raise the heat to medium high so water starts boiling. Break pasta in half and sprinkle into mixture. Be careful that pasta does not stick together and clump.

Italian Vegetable Soup


Servings Prep Time
8-10 servings 8minutes

Cook Time
22minutes

30 minute Italian Vegetable Soup – This is the BEST version I have tried – my family begs me to make this soup! hearty, comforting chunks of ground beef and veggies in an Italian spiced tomato broth - SO good and easy!
Ingredients

1 lb. lean ground beef
1/2 yellow onion, diced
4 medium size carrots, thinly sliced (2 cups)
3 stalks celery, thinly sliced (2 cups)
7 cups water
1 10.5 oz. can low sodium beef broth
1 14.5 oz. can diced tomatoes with juices
1 15 oz. can tomato sauce
1 15.5oz. can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 can of Cannellini beans
2 tablespoons beef base or beef bouillon
1teaspoon salt
1teaspoon dried basil
1teaspoon dried parsley
1/2teaspoon dried oregano
1/2teaspoon garlic powder
1/2teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1cup frozen corn, thawed
1/4head green cabbage, roughly chopped (2 cups)I use cole slaw already shredded.
Shredded Parmesan cheese for serving (optional)
1/4cup chopped fresh Italian parsley for serving (optional)
I add a can of chopped spinach added when the cabbage is added

Instructions

Crumble the beef into a large pot over medium high heat, add the onion and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until the beef has browned. While the beef is cooking, prep the carrots and celery.
Add the carrots, celery, water and beef broth to the pot with the meat and onions. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil as you add the tomatoes, tomato sauce, kidney beans, beef base/bouillon, salt, basil, parsley, oregano, garlic, and pepper.
Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Once soup is boiling, stir and reduce the heat slightly to avoid splattering; simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes, until the carrots are tender (or longer the better, time permitting).
Add the corn to the soup, taste the broth and add salt if desired. Stir in the cabbage, if desired. Cover and simmer for a few minutes more, just until the corn is warm and the cabbage has wiled. Scoop into bowls and, if desired, sprinkle with the cheese and parsley just before serving.

1 Tbsp olive oil
1 stick of butter
1.5 C chopped yellow onions
1 C chopped green bell pepper
½ cup celery
1.5 tsp. salt
1 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. cayenne
3 package smoked sausage – sliced
1 lb Shrimp
1 lb crawfish
2 Tbsp chopped garlic
3 cans Rotel tomatoes
7.5 C half & half
3 C old fashion grits
Green onions

In a large pot, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions, bell pepper, celery salt, salt, pepper, and cayenne.

Cook, stirring until the vegetables are soft and lightly golden – about 4 minutes. Add the sausage and continue to cook, stirring occasionally for 2 minutes.

Add the garlic and Rotel. Cook for 2 minutes. Add the half & half and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and stir in the grits.

Stir for 2 minutes. Add the ham. Cook, stirring until grits are tender and creamy – 15-20 minutes.

Stir in the green onions, and add the cheeses and cream cheese. Stir until it is completely melted – about 30 seconds.

Serve hot and ENJOY!
