Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cut the bacon into small pieces and cook in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until crispy and rendered.
  2. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon, leaving the fat in the pot, and set aside for garnish.
  3. Add the chicken pieces to the pot and sear on all sides until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Slice the hot Italian sausage links into coins and add them to the pot, browning them alongside the chicken.
  5. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  6. Pour in the water, crushed tomatoes, and tomato sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  7. Add the dried oregano, salt, and pepper to the liquid base.
  8. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes until chicken is tender.
  9. Add the cooked elbow macaroni to the stew and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  10. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or oregano if needed.
  11. Ladle into bowls and top with the reserved crispy bacon and chopped fresh parsley before serving.
