1 cup uncooked regular long-grain brown or white rice
Water called for on rice package
1/2 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
1 cut-up whole chicken (3 to 3 1/2 lb), skin removed
1 cup chopped onions (1 large)
1 cup chopped green bell pepper (1 medium)
1 cup chopped celery (2 medium stalks)
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped, or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 dried bay leaves
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 can (28 oz) Muir Glen™ organic diced tomatoes, undrained
1 3/4 cups Progresso™ chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)
2 teaspoons browning and seasoning sauce
1 teaspoon Frank's™ RedHot™ Original cayenne pepper sauce
1 1/2 cups (from 16-oz bag) or 1 box (9 or 10 oz) frozen cut okra, thawed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Cook rice in water as directed on package, omitting butter and salt; keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, in 8-quart stockpot or Dutch oven, stir flour constantly over medium-low heat until flour is deep brown. Remove from stockpot; set aside.
  • In same stockpot, heat oil over medium heat. Add chicken pieces, onions, bell pepper, celery, garlic, bay leaves, thyme, salt and pepper; cook 8 to 10 minutes, turning chicken pieces and stirring frequently, until chicken is browned and vegetables are tender.
  • Stir in browned flour, tomatoes, broth, browning sauce and pepper sauce until well mixed. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 50 minutes. Stir in okra; cover and simmer 20 minutes longer.
  • Remove chicken from stockpot; cool about 10 minutes or just until cool enough to handle. Remove bones from chicken; discard bones. Cut chicken into bite-size pieces; return to stockpot. Cook until thoroughly heated. Remove bay leaves. Serve over cooked rice; sprinkle with parsley.
