Cut chicken into bite size pieces and toss with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil. Add chicken and cook over medium-high heat about 5 minutes, or until chicken is opaque on all sides stir frequently. Remove chicken and juices, and set aside. In same skillet, heat oil. Add onion, celery, green pepper and garlic and saute' until vegetables are tender. Stir in tomatoes and their liquid. Stir in 1/2 cup water, salt, cayenne pepper and bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over low to medium heat for about 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in chicken and juices. Blend together the cornstarch and water and stir into the pot. Cook uncovered over low heat 15 -20 minutes or til chicken is done and tender. Note: You can double this if u have a bigger crowd. I also use the same recipe and submitted 1-2 lbs of shrimp for a terrific shrimp creole! Serves 4. Submitted to Fareshare 10-98 by Denise Borne - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

'98 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 tablespoon margarine 1/3 cup green pepper -- chopped 1 medium onion -- diced 1 stalk celery -- sliced 1 quart chicken or turkey broth 1 cup canned tomatoes 1 cup leftover turkey or chicken -- cubed (opt.) 1 teaspoon salt -- optional 1/2 teaspoon pepper 1/3 cup uncooked rice 1 cup cooked okra -- sliced 2 tablespoons chopped parsley In large saucepan brown green pepper, onion and celery in butter until tender, not brown.
