Directions

  1. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, cook until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Add tomatoes, chicken broth, garlic, salt, and cayenne. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 8 minutes. Add okra, cover, and simmer for 3 minutes more.

  2. Combine water and flour in a small bowl and add to the skillet. Simmer, uncovered, until thick and chicken is no longer pink in the centers, about 2 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Stir in hot sauce. Serve over rice.
