How to make chicken gumbo:

In a large heavy saucepan, brown chicken in shortening. Remove and set aside. Stir flour in until very brown, making a roux. Add onion, celery and garlic; cook until slightly wilted. Gradually add hot water until roux is well blended. Add chicken and seasonings (except gumbo file). Cover with a tight-fitting lid and bring to steaming point. Lower heat and cook until chicken is tender, about 2 hours. Add parsley 5 minutes before removing from heat. Add gumbo file. Serve over cooked rice.
