My Chicken Gumbo Soup
delicious!
2 tablespoons bacon drippings
1-3 chicken breasts, cooked, de-boned, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
1 onion, diced
8 cups of chicken broth (what I cooked the breast in)
1 can (16 ounce) tomatoes, not drained
2 teaspoons salt
1/3 cup of green peppers, diced
1/4 cup of long grained rice, uncooked
1 cup of frozen okra
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
1 dash of Worcestershire sauce
In a large soup pot, add all ingredients.
Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer until all vegetables
and rice are tender. serve hot.
The amount of rice, is such a tiny bit, that I left it in the recipe.
You can leave it out, if you are that strict with your carbs!!>
Hope you all ENJOY this, it's one of my favorites. :-)

So glad to see a low carb chicken gumbo recipe...
ReplyDeleteI'm back to low carb for the rest of my life... and instead of eating some carbs "now and then" I'm going to replace carbed foods I used to like with alternates...
Since I grew up in Louisiana, I love gumbo... now I'll have this one without the flour roux.... Awesome...! Thanks... Hope you are well today.

Hey Carol,
ReplyDeleteI loved this recipe, let me know how you like it though, since you are from the home of Cajun food!
We can tweak just about any recipe to be low carb. I'm using zuchinni now for pasta!! Just use a potato peeler and make ribbons, saute them in butter you have noodles!!
