Can use only chicken (3 lbs.) or only shrimp (3 lbs.), if want to. This is soooo good that Dad had seconds! That rarely ever happens. :)

How To Make crock pot/slow cooker chicken & shrimp gumbo

  • 1
    Drain juice/broth from soup to equal 6 C. (add water if necessary to equal up to 6 C). Save noodles in bowl to add later.
  • 2
    Saute celery, onion & green pepper in oil, about 10 minutes. Blend in flour & broth/water from soup until smooth. Cook 5 minutes. Pour into crock pot.
  • 3
    Add remaining ingredients except shrimp & parsley.
  • 4
    Cover. Cook on LOW 10-12 hours. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND PLACING IT ON HIGH - IT DID NOT HAVE THAT OPTION. COOKING IT LOW & SLOW = A BETTER MEAL.
  • 5
    Add shrimp & parsley in the last 30 minutes of cooking time.
  • 6
    Remove bay leaves before serving.
  • 7
    Serve with white/brown rice or grits (plain or cheesey), if desired.
