Steps:
- Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot (preferably cast-iron) over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Pat chicken dry and sprinkle with salt. Brown chicken in 4 batches, turning, about 5 minutes per batch, transferring as browned to a large bowl.
- Add enough of remaining oil to pot to total 1/4 cup fat, then stir in flour with a flat metal or wooden spatula and cook over moderately low heat, scraping back and forth constantly (not stirring), until roux is the color of milk chocolate, 10 to 20 minutes. Add onion, bell pepper, and celery and cook, scraping back and forth occasionally, until onion is softened, about 8 minutes.
- Add water to roux mixture and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally until roux is incorporated. (Roux will appear curdled initially, but will come together as it reaches a boil.) Add chicken and any juices accumulated in bowl, then simmer, partially covered, until chicken is cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes. Stir in cayenne, scallion greens, and salt to taste and serve over rice.
SPICY CAJUN CHICKEN STEW
This is my version of a spicy low-carb chicken stew I created while starting a flat belly cleanse. I don't measure so the measurements are approximate - adjust to your taste! It just turned out so good I had to share!

PRESSURE COOKER CAJUN CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE STEW
This is a delicious recipe - my own ( based loosely upon some internet recipes) . You can use more or less cajun seasoning to your liking since its spicy. I serve this with fresh bread and white rice. The Cajuns might use Andouille sausage with this but I really like the hillshire lite smoked sausage ( its even better than the non-lite version, in my opinion).

- Heat butter and olive oil, over medium-well, in the bottom of a heavy , larger size, pressure cooker.
- Add chopped onions and garlic. Add chicken and mix up. Brown chicken ( mixed with the onions/garlic) by turning frequently.
- Add all the other ingredients. The chicken stock should come up almost to the top of the ingredients so that they are almost covered. Add more chicken broth if necessary. Make sure that the pressure cooker is no more than 2/3 full.
- Bring up to pressure and cook for about 45 minutes. Turn heat off and let the pressure come down naturally ( about 20 plus minutes give or take).
- Before serving-adjust seasoning with additional slat and pepper if necessary.
