For a richer flavor, try browning the chicken pieces in a skillet with a little olive oil before adding them to the bowl. Feel free to substitute other vegetables such as zucchini, bell peppers, or kale, based on your preferences and what you have on hand. If you don't have fresh parsley, you can use dried parsley for garnish, but fresh parsley is recommended This stew can also be made in a slow cooker. Simply combine all the ingredients in the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.
