Chicken Gumbo

Nothing says Cajun cuisine like Gumbo! The secret is in the roux; A good gumbo uses a dark roux which adds deep flavor and intense color. On the stovetop, this process can take up to 45 minutes of constant stirring to get it right. Here’s our secret: You can make a perfect roux in less than 5 minutes using the microwave — no stirring required. Add the remaining gumbo ingredients to the Anyday, cover with the lid, and cook in the microwave. Easy weeknight gumbo is ready in the same time it takes to build a traditional roux on the stovetop!

All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwave and home kitchens to make sure they work— and work well. Unless specified otherwise, all recipes should be cooked at full power.
