Ingredients

Directions

  1. Break up large pieces of tomatoes with a fork or spoon.
  2. Place the broken-up tomatoes, frozen mixed vegetables, uncooked elbow macaroni, chopped onion, oregano, salt, garlic powder, pepper, bay leaf, and chicken stock into a medium saucepan.
  3. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the liquid to a rolling boil.
  4. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low to maintain a gentle simmer.
  5. Cover the pot partially and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the macaroni from sticking to the bottom.
  6. Check the macaroni for tenderness; if it is still firm, simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
  7. Stir in the diced cooked chicken.
  8. Heat through for 1-2 minutes until the chicken is warmed.
  9. Remove the bay leaf from the stew.
  10. Ladle the hot stew into bowls and serve immediately.
