Crock Pot Chicken and Sausage Gumbo

Ingredients:
•3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
•3 tablespoons oil
•1/2 pound smoked sausage, cut into 1/2 inch slices
•3/4 to 1 pound boneless chicken thighs, cut in bite-size pieces
•1 1/2 to 2 cups frozen cut okra
•1 cup chopped onion
•1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
•3 cloves garlic, minced
•1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper, or to taste
•1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
•1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
•1 cup frozen medium shrimp, cleaned and cooked

Preparation:
In small saucepan, combine flour and oil; mix well. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium-high heat for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring constantly, about 8 to 12 minutes or until mixture turns a light red-brown. Place flour and oil mixture in 3 1/2 to 4-quart crockpot.
