- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 2 cups chicken broth

How to make it:

- Add sausage slices, cooking until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. then move them to a paper towel–lined plate.
- Add the chicken and cook for one minute.
- Add onion, bell peppers, and garlic and cook for one minute.

- Add sausages back in.
