One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes with green chiles (not drained)
3 cups (24 ounces) reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth

DIRECTIONS

Season chicken with salt and pepper, and place it in a crock pot. Add all remaining ingredients and lightly stir.

Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 7-8 hours, until chicken is fully cooked.

Remove chicken and place in a large bowl. Shred with two forks-one to hold the chicken in place and the other to scrape across and shred it.

Return shredded chicken to the crock pot, and give your gumbo a stir. Serve it up!
