Directions:
In a heavy bottom pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add flour and cook, whisking constantly, until pale golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in bell peppers, onion, garlic, and oregano; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are crisp-tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Add 4 cups water; stir in okra and sausage. Bring to boil. Stir in shredded chicken and warm through, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve with cornbread.

Variations: Two of the 4 cups water could be replaced with 2 cups low sodium chicken broth
