Chicken And Sausage Gumbo

1. 1

   Begin cooking your brown rice. Typically brown rice will take 30-45 minutes. Once the rice starts cooking this should be enough time to prepare and simmer your gumbo having both finish at the same time.

2. 2

   Chop your green pepper and onion.

3. 3

   Cut your sausage into thin slices.

4. 4

   Saute your green pepper, onion, and sausage in a pot together with a small amount of heated oil. Season to taste with cajun seasoning.

5. 5

   While you're sauteing the first three ingredients slice your chicken breasts into thin, small strips.

6. 6

   Once the vegetables soften and the sausage shows the first signs of browning add the chicken.

7. 7

   Cook together until the chicken is almost cooked throughout.

8. 8

   If the mix seems too greasy you can drain it. Since I'm using turkey sausage I usually don't drain to keep the flavor.

9. 9

   Add your can of tomatoes and okra along with chicken broth until the pot is about 1/2 way full.

10. 10

    Let simmer on medium-low heat for at least 15 minutes if not more.

11. 11

    Serve over brown rice with cornbread.
