Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup butter
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 1 onion diced
  • 2 sticks celery chopped
  • 1 red pepper deseeded and chopped
  • 1 green pepper deseeded and chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic crushed
  • 1 lb. duck breast cut into chunks, fat removed
  • 1 (14 oz.) can crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tbsp Creole seasoning
  • 1 lb. shrimp
  • salt and pepper
  • 2 green onions finely sliced

Instructions
 

  • Add the butter to a large, heavy-based pot over MEDIUM heat. Once the butter has melted, sprinkle in the flour. Stir slowly until it forms a smooth, caramel-colored roux.
  • Add the diced onion, celery, peppers, and garlic. Saute for 5 minutes.
  • Add the duck, crushed tomato, chicken stock, bay leaves, Creole seasoning, and salt and pepper to the pot. Stir. Cover the pot and bring the mix to a boil. Turn down the heat and let simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • If the gumbo hasn’t thickened, remove the lid and continue to let simmer. Add the shrimp and cook for 5 minutes, until the shrimp has turned an opaque white.
  • Remove the bay leaves. Sprinkle the green onions over and serve. Enjoy!
