Method

Preheat oil in a large pot. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken and sausage to pot; cook and stir until brown. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add chicken broth. Mix cornstarch with water; add to the pot. Stir in okra and rice. Bring to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.

 

Notes: I always serve hot over cold potato salad in the middle of the soup bowl.
