Some dinners warm you up. Others feel like someone tucked you in. 🥣
A pot simmering on the stove, the kitchen filling with spices, and that familiar feeling that somehow takes you straight back to Mom’s cooking.
This Chicken & Shrimp Gumbo brings that comfort to your Ideal Protein routine- with chicken, shrimp, okra, peppers, tomatoes and plenty of herbs simmered together in a rich, savory broth. 🍗🍤
Recipe:
Saute ½ lb chicken in 1 tbsp olive oil → add 2 cups scallions, green peppers, celery & okra + 2 tsp jalapeño + 1 tsp garlic → stir in 1 cup diced tomatoes → add 6 cups chicken broth + bay leaf, oregano, thyme, basil, onion powder, salt & pepper → simmer for 30 minutes → add ½ lb shrimp and cook until just done.
Comfort food can still have a place on the Ideal Protein menu. Save this one for the next time you’re craving a little taste of home. 🍂
