Nothing says Louisiana quite like a steaming bowl of gumbo. It was one of Chef Paul Prudhomme’s favorite meals, and for good reason! Soulful and layered with history, this dish tells the story of Creole and Cajun cooking—one spoonful at a time.
“There must be as many kinds of gumbo as there are families in South Louisiana! Maybe more, because each one has its own recipe,” Chef Paul often said. His own versions were a reflection of the traditions he grew up with and the tastes he perfected over a lifetime.
Whether you’ve got all day to let it simmer low and slow, or just an hour to pull dinner together, there’s a gumbo here that’ll bring comfort straight to your table.
Chicken & Andouille Smoked Sausage Gumbo
This is the gumbo folks grew up on—stick-to-your-ribs good and full of flavor. Seasoned with Chef Paul’s Meat Magic®, it’s got that deep, satisfying taste that feels like Sunday supper, no matter what day it is.
1-Hour Chicken & Sausage Gumbo
When you need gumbo now but don’t want to skip the good stuff, this is your recipe. Chef Paul’s Gravy & Gumbo Magic® does the heavy lifting, so in about an hour, you’ve got something that tastes like it’s been on the stove all afternoon.
Elegant and just a little fancy—this one’s perfect when you want to show off. The gamey duck and briny oysters play beautifully together, and Chef Paul’s Seafood Magic® ties it all up with just the right kick of spice. Company-worthy, but your family will beg for it too.
Instant Pot Leftover Turkey Gumbo
Got turkey hanging around after the holidays? Put it to good use. The Instant Pot makes quick work of turning leftovers into something special. Magic Creole Seasoning, a dash of Magic Pepper Sauce, and some filé transform it into a whole new reason to love turkey season.
This one’s a Louisiana staple when the weather turns cool or New Year’s rolls around. Ham and cabbage might sound simple, but with Vegetable Magic® in the mix, it’s anything but ordinary. Comforting, hearty, and deeply satisfying.
Big, bold Creole taste without the wait. Chicken, andouille, and tasso come together with the Holy Trinity (onions, celery, bell pepper) in a savory broth that’s loaded with depth. A touch of Seafood Magic® and Magic Pepper Sauce® bring the heat, and before you know it, you’ve got dinner that warms you from the inside out.
Make It a Gumbo Night
Down here, gumbo isn’t just a meal—it’s the reason folks pull up a chair, stay a while, and leave happy. Whether you go traditional with chicken and sausage, get fancy with duck and oysters, or stretch those leftovers into something new, there’s a gumbo for every mood and every season.
So pull out that big pot, get your roux going, and let the whole house smell like Louisiana. Just don’t forget the rice—and of course, the Magic!
