We fondly call this low carb gumbalaya because it’s a little bit gumbo and a little bit jambalaya. It’s a lot delicious!
Very hearty with a thick broth, chicken, kielbasa, and shrimp. It has just a few veggies–onion, bell pepper, and okra and is delicious on its own or served over rice cauli.

1-1/2 lbs cubed chicken breast
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 large green pepper, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
