Instant Pot Chicken Sausage Gumbo
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs, chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/2 pound andouille sausage, sliced
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 1/2 cups sliced okra
  • 2 teaspoons black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
1
Turn on your pressure cooker and switch it to the Sauté mode.
2
Next, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in the pot and add the chicken and sausage; cook for 6 minutes.
3
Remove the cooked meat with a slotted spoon and set it aside.
4
In the same pot, add 1/2 cup of oil and sprinkle in some flour.
5
Now whisk the mixture until it forms a rich, dark-colored paste - similar to peanut butter - after about 10 minutes.
6
Add sliced onions, bell peppers, celery, and minced garlic to the pot. Stir constantly to prevent any of these ingredients from burning during cooking; cook for 5 minutes.
7
Switch off the pot.
8
Now, pour in some broth, add diced tomatoes, okra, black pepper, cayenne pepper, thyme, Creole seasoning, and Worcestershire sauce to the pot.
9
Stir in the cooked chicken and sausage that you set aside earlier.
10
Close and lock the lid of your pressure cooker.
11
Follow the manufacturer's instructions to select high pressure according to your specific model and set a timer for 4 minutes.
12
After the cooking process is complete, allow about 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to release naturally.
13
Finally, carefully use the quick-release method according to your manufacturer's instructions to release the pressure; this should take about 5 minutes.
14
Serve the dish immediately.
