1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into 2 inch pieces
1 (10 ounce) pkg. frozen okra, thawed
2 links andouille sausage, diced (I just use Hillshire farm sausage--the large U shaped sausage)
1 Cup chopped onions
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 tsp. dried thyme
1 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp. salt (I usually omit)
2 bay leaves
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. mustard powder
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
2 Cup reduced sodium chicken broth
2 Cup tomato juice (tomato sauce can be substituted)
2 Cup cooked rice

In a slow cooker, combine the chicken and all remaining ingredients except the rice. Mix well to combine. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. Serve over rice.
