Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Season the chicken tenders with Cajun seasoning. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until blackened and cooked through. Remove and dice into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Make the Roux

    In the same skillet, add the flour and stir constantly for about 15-20 minutes on medium heat until it reaches a dark brown color. Be careful not to burn it.

  3. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    Add diced onions, green bell pepper, celery, and minced garlic to the roux. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Stock and Flavorings

    Stir in the chicken stock, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. 5

    Combine Chicken and Mushrooms

    Add the diced blackened chicken and sliced mushrooms to the sauce. Allow to simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes until heated through.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onions over rice or with crusty bread.
