Recipe: Appetizing Lentils and Fish Gumbo

Lentils and Fish Gumbo. Gumbo commonly uses okra or filé powder as a thickener -- I decided to use some red lentils instead, and I was quite pleased with the result. I had an orange bell pepper on hand so used it in the "trinity." I added lacinato kale to add some contrast in color and texture. Add in the cooked lentils, chopped chicken, and sausage.

Lentils and Fish Gumbo Serve the gumbo on its own or over hot cooked rice, and garnish with green onions. What makes this gumbo soup so different is that it contains lentils! I'm using lentils in place of the second protein, often chicken, that you'd usually find in gumbo. You can have Lentils and Fish Gumbo using 15 ingredients and 3 steps. Here is how you cook it.
