Ingredients
- 1 lb boned and skinned chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch (2.5cm) pieces
- 2 tsp vegetable oil

- 2 Tbs chicken bouillon granules
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 2 whole bay leaves
- 4 oz egg noodles, cholesterol free, uncooked
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
Directions
- In a large Dutch oven or soup pot, sauté chicken pieces in oil over medium heat until pinkness is gone and chicken is opaque.
- Add onion, red pepper, and garlic to chicken, sauté about 2 minutes.
- Add water, bouillon, pepper, and bay leaves.
- Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Stir in noodles and frozen vegetables and cook for 10–15 minutes uncovered until noodles are tender. Remove bay leaves before serving.
