Quick Cajun Chicken Gumbo

Ingredients
    * 2 tablespoon olive oil
    * 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
    * 2/3 cup low-sodium, fat-free chicken broth
    * 1 medium yellow onion, diced small
    * 1 green bell pepper, diced small
    * 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
    * 1 (14 1/2-ounce) can stewed tomatoes
    * 1 tablespoon Creole or Cajun seasoning
    * 1 (10-ounce) package frozen cut okra, thawed (optional)
    * 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce


Directions
Cut raw chicken into strips or cubes. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sauté garlic, onion, and bell pepper, stirring often, until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste and add to skillet. Give pan a good shake every now and then to sear chicken on all sides, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add broth, tomatoes with their liquid, and okra. Stir to break up the okra, then cover, reduce heat, and simmer 8 minutes or until everything is heated through and slightly thickened. Stir in hot sauce and season to taste.

Serves 4
