Directions:Cut chicken into 1 inch chunks. In a large sauce pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sausage a few pieces at a time and cook until brown on all sides. Remove to plate as they brown. Pour off drippings from sauce pot into a cup and add enough oil to measure 3 tbsp. Return oil to sauce pot. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly until mixture is dark brown, about 2 minutes. Remove sauce pot from heat. Add onion, green pepper, celery, garlic, salt, and red and black peppers stirring until all the ingredients are crisp-tender. Return sauce to pot. Gradually stir in the tomatoes and chicken broth, then add the chicken and sausages. Bring mixture to a boil. Add shrimp and reduce heat. Cover and simmer until the chicken is tender (about 15 min.) Add the okra then continue to simmer, covered, for about 5 minutes more. Serve over cooked rice. |
