In a large pot, heat 0.25 cup of butter over medium heat until melted.
Add 0.25 cup of flour to the pot, stirring constantly to make a dark roux. Cook for about 15-20 minutes until the roux is a deep brown color.
Stir in 1 diced bell pepper, 1 diced onion, and 1 diced carrot to the roux. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables soften.
Add 500 g of chicken breast, cut into pieces, and 250 g of chorizo, sliced, to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Pour in 1 can of diced tomatoes (about 400 g) and 4 cups of water. Add 1 teaspoon of cajun seasoning and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low and let simmer for about 20 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
Stir in 300 g of okra and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot over rice or with crusty bread.
