    Place chicken, 2 cups stock, tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, & Cajun Seasoning Blend in a Crockery Pot on high heat. In a medium skillet, sauté onion, carrots, bell peppers, corn & garlic in olive oil for about 10 minutes or until softened. Add to Crockery Pot. In same skillet, brown sausage on all sides over medium-high heat. Reduce heat, cover and cook through (about 10 minutes). Slice sausage into 1 inch pieces & add to crock pot. Pour out all but about 2 tablespoons of the sausage fat. Add flour to fat & stir constantly over medium-high heat to create a dark roux. Slowly add remaining 1 cup of broth to roux and stir until smooth. Mix roux into Crockery Pot, lower heat, cover & cook for 6-8 hours.
    About 15 minutes before serving, stir in the shrimp.
    Season to taste with salt, pepper and filé.
