Gumbo Style Chicken Creole

SUBMITTED BY: SMFLRN PHOTO BY: LADYJAYPEE

"Cooked leftover chicken can be tossed into this gumbo and simmered with tomatoes, mushrooms, chile peppers, a little of this and a little of that. Delicious chicken gumbo consistency with tomato base. Makes plenty to last for several days. Serve over hot cooked rice and sprinkle with filet powder, if desired."
