Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs, cubed
  • 4 chorizo sausages or mild Italian sausages, sliced
  • 2 onions, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1 sweet red pepper, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine or sodium-reduced chicken stock

Preparation

In large skillet, heat half of the oil over medium-high heat; brown chicken and sausages. Transfer to slow cooker. Drain any fat from pan.

Add remaining oil to skillet; cook onions, celery, red pepper, garlic, paprika, thyme, bay leaves, salt and pepper until lightly golden, about 8 minutes. Add to slow cooker.

Add wine to skillet; bring to boil, scraping up any browned bits. Add to slow cooker. Add tomatoes, broth, tomato paste and 1/2 cup (125 mL) water; cover and cook on low for 4 to
6 hours and chicken cubes are still whole. Discard bay leaves.

Stir in okra and parsley; cover and cook on high for 15 minutes.
