Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons oil we use avocado oil
  • 1 large onion diced
  • 2 medium bell peppers cored and chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic peeled and minced
  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 lb. Andouille sausage thinly sliced into rounds
  • 1, 14 oz. can crushed tomatoes
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons Creole or Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon of dried thyme crushed
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 lb. raw medium shrimp peeled and deveined
  • salt and black pepper
  • 12 oz. bag of frozen cauliflower rice

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in a stock pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook for 3-5 minutes, to release the flavors.
  • Remove the onions and peppers to a plate; set aside.
  • Add in the remaining ingredients, except the cauliflower rice, and stir to combine.
  • Bring the keto gumbo to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 25 minutes.
  • Add in the frozen cauliflower rice and the cooked peppers and onions, and stir to combine.
  • Turn off the heat and let the keto gumbo cool for 10 minutes. The heat will transfer to the cauliflower rice, heating it.
  • Garnish and serve hot.

Notes

  • You can use boneless chicken thigh meat if preferred.
  • You can use frozen cooked shrimp. Add it into the pot when you add the cauliflower rice.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat, place in a saucepan over medium heat until fully warmed through.
  • Enjoy with sour cream and a few dashes of hot sauce!
