Gumbo. I'd never tried it since I'm not a fan of seafood dishes, but I stumbled upon Isaac Toups' chicken and sausage gumbo recipe and it's borderline life-changing.
One of the best things to ever come out of my kitchen.
Gumbo without seafood is usually called jambalaya, although I might be deeply offending someone with such a flippant remark.
Jambalaya is so good, and it's a great way to use up a bunch of leftover or home-frozen veg.
Toups said calling it gumbo is a north/south Louisiana thing, but hell if I know.
He also said to use good sausage, and if you don't live somewhere where you can get good sausage, move. Solid life advice.
