Ingredients

3 pounds skinless boneless chicken breast or thighs, cut into 1 inch pieces
12 oz Cajun sausage halved and sliced in 1 inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion chopped
2 celery stalks chopped
1 green bell pepper chopped
6 oz tomato paste
28 oz diced tomatoes
3 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning optional
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt to taste
2 zucchini halved and sliced in 1 inch pieces

Instructions

In a large stock pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until done, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from pot but keep warm.
Add the onion, celery, and bell pepper to the pot and heat, stirring often, until tender.
Add tomato paste, tomatoes, chicken stock, and seasonings to pot. Return chicken to pot and add sausage. Bring stew to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium-low and add zucchini on top. Cover and cook about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid burning.
To cook in the slow cooker, add all ingredients to the crock. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours.
