Serving Size: 2/3 cup gumbo, 1/3 cup rice
Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Cooking Time: 60 minutes
Ingredients
1 cup long grain brown rice
2 Tbsp. canola oil
3/4 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 large onion, chopped
1 large green pepper, cored, seeded, and diced
1 cup okra, cut into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
1 cup chopped celery
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 to 2 tsp. Cajun seasoning
1/2 lb. reduced-fat smoked turkey sausage (cooked), cut into 1-inch-thick slices
1 can (14.5 oz.) diced tomatoes
1 3/4 cup fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth
Preparation
1. Rinse the rice in a fine sieve until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, bring the 2 cups water to boiling. Add the rice and bring to boiling. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 40 to 50 minutes, until the rice is tender; set aside.
2. In a Dutch oven or large skillet, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and saute for 5 to 6 minutes, until cooked; set aside.
3. Add the flour to the pan. Cook the flour over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Add the onion, green pepper, okra, and celery and saute for 1 minute. Add the Cajun seasoning and saute for 1 minute more.
4. Add the cooked chicken, sausage, tomatoes, and broth and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, until the soup is heated through. Serve in individual bowls over the cooked brown rice.
