Add food processor mix to the roux & let cook for 10mins.
Pull apart & chop thyme. Then add to the pot & mix.
Add bay leaves & white wine. Stir and cook for 6 mins.
Add worcestershire, cayenne, file powder, dry mustart, creole seasoning & old bay. Stir everything together.
Add tomatoes with juice, clam juice, chicken broth, sausage with deglaze, chicken, green onions, parsley & frozen okra. Simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 30 minutes.
Optional: Gumbo base can be made 1 day ahead. Cool slightly. Chill uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled. Bring base to a simmer before continuing the next day. Skim off oil if desired.
Season with salt and pepper. Serve with rice if desired. Garnish with minced fresh Italian parsley and sliced green onions.
