To get started with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few components. You can cook cajun chicken and okra stir-fry using 12 ingredients and 3 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Cajun Chicken and Okra Stir-Fry:
- Take 2 tsp olive oil
- Take 1 lb skinless boneless chicken, cut to bite-size
- Prepare 1/4 tsp salt
- Prepare 1/4 tsp pepper
- Make ready 2 tsp cajun seasoning
- Prepare 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- Prepare 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- Get 1 onion, chopped
- Prepare 4 garlic cloves, minced
- Prepare 1 cup okra, cut to 1/2 inch pieces

Stir constantly, aiming to achieve okra that is green but turning a golden brown. Cajun chicken is big on flavor and comes together quickly - my favorite kind of meal!

- Season chicken with salt, pepper and cajun seasoning, stir-fry in 1 tsp oil until cooked through. Transfer chicken to plate and set aside.

- Return chicken to pan and add tomatoes and oregano. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to simmer for about 5 minutes, until mixture is slightly thickened.
In a large nonstick skillet, stir-fry the chicken, kielbasa, onion and garlic in oil until onion is tender. Add the peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, herbs, Cajun seasoning, salt and pepper. Cook and stir until chicken juices run clear and vegetables are crisp-tender. Combine cornstarch and cold water until smooth; add to the skillet. Season chicken all over with salt.
