“I am fairly new to your site but our family already has three favorites of yours and that is hard to do in our family of four with differing picky tastes! We were having a hard time finding chicken at the beginning of the pandemic here so I told my his a band ” — a cook
“I made this tonight and it tastes amazing. I made a few tweaks to it for what I had on hand. I used olive oil, and did the chicken thighs first. I didn’t have andouille on hand but I had Hillsbire farm kielbasa. Brown both, and did the roux. I let that simmer ” — a cook, 5★
