Zydeco Stomp Gumbo

== Description ==
I found this recipe on allrecipes.com, but changed it up a good bit based on other people's reviews. I have never made gumbo or a roux before and this turned out perfect...it makes a LOT, but it is soooo good!! Perfect for a large get-together...
== Ingredients ==
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped
* 1 lb andouille sausages, sliced
* 1 cup olive oil
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 2 tablespoons minced garlic
* 5 cups chicken broth
* 12 ounces beer
* 16 ounces frozen okra
* 2 (10 ounces) cans diced tomatoes (with liquid)
* 1 onion, chopped
* 1 (10 ounces) can Rotel tomatoes (with liquid)
* 2 jalapeno peppers, chopped
* ¼ cup Cajun seasoning
* 2 (6 ounces) cans crabmeat
* 2 lbs shrimp, peeled
== Directions ==
# Heat oil in a large skillet, over medium high heat and cook chicken until no longer pink and juices run clear.
# Stir in sausage and cook until evenly browned.
# Drain chicken and sausage and set aside.
# In a large heavy saucepan, over medium heat, blend olive oil and flour to create a roux.
# Stir constantly (wire whisk works very well) until browned and bubbly.
# Mix in garlic and cook about 1 minute.
# Transfer roux mixture into a very large cooking pot and gradually stir chicken broth and beer into the roux mixture.
# Bring to a boil and mix in chicken, sausage, okra, diced tomatoes, chopped onion, Rotel tomatoes, chopped jalapeno peppers and Cajun seasoning.
# Reduce heat, cover and simmer about 40 minutes, stirring often.
# Mix crab meat and shrimp into the mixture and cook about 20 minutes, stirring frequently.
# If you find this is too thin for your taste, you can mix some cornstarch with cold water and add to it to thicken.
# Serve over rice (Zatarain's long-grain rice is great, it doesn't stick together) along with crusty French bread and your beverage of choice.
