Gumbo Recipe

We tried another recipe this week and loved it! It is a healthy version of gumbo.

Ingredients:
1 carton of chicken stock
1 quart of tomatoes
1 bag of okra
1 small yellow onion
3 stalks of celery
olive oil
black pepper
garlic powder
cajun seasoning
1 bag of shrimp
2 chicken breasts
1 smoked sausage

Coat bottom of pan with oilve oil, dice up yellow onion and celery; sautee in olive oil. In a large pot, add chicken stock and tomatoes; bring to simmer. Add onion and celery to tomato/chicken stock. Add okra to large pot. In same pan that you cooked the onion and celery, sautee chicken cut into 1-inch chunks with cajun seasoning sprinkled over chicken. Do the same for the sausage. Add meat to pot with chicken stock and tomatoes. Add fresh-cracked black pepper - I did about 5 turns on the pepper gridner, cajun seasoning - I did about a tablespoon (taste it and see what flavor you like), and garlic powder - I did about a teaspoon. I don't season all at once - I add some, let it cook, then taste and add more if necessary. That way you don't over do it. At the very end, add the shrimp and let it cook a few more minutes. Serve over rice.
