Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1/3 cup vegetable oil

1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour

1 cup diced yellow onion

1/2 cup diced celery

1/2 cup diced red bell pepper

garlic, minced

seven ounces tomato concasse, with juice

chicken stock to cover

1/2 cup cooked, sliced okra

about 10 ounces cooked, shredded chicken meat

8 ounces shrimp, halved

oregano

thyme

chili powder

cayenne

sea salt

black pepper

Directions

In your soup pot over medium-high heat, melt oil and butter together. Whisk in flour to make a

roux. Stir constantly until mixture looks like wet sand and smells like popcorn.

Stir in onion, celery, garlic, and bell pepper to coat in roux.

Sprinkle in herbs and spices and stir to mix.

Cover with chicken stock, add tomatoes, chicken, and shrimp.

Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook about 10 minutes, until the vegetables are cooked but not limp. The roux will also cook and thicken the soup a bit.

Stir in okra.

Rest in refrigerator overnight, warm, taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.
