I have not posted in a while...because I have not done a lot of cooking in a while. I go in waves. So I thought I would post this Gumbo recipe - it is from my Weight Watchers cookbook, and I made it tonight. I really liked it and Jeff gave it a thumbs up. It is really easy.
2 teaspoons canola oil
4 ounces turkey kielbasa (I used turkey smoked sausage)
1 onion, chopped
3 celery stalks, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 cup chopped cooked chicken breast
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green peppers, celery, and onions (I used diced tomatoes with green chili's)
1 cup frozen sliced okra
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups hot cooked brown rice
1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa, onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic; cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are softened, 5 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute.
2 Stir in the broth, chicken, tomatoes, and okra and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in salt. Divide the gumbo among 4 bowls and top each with 1/2 cup of the rice.
