Remove chicken from pot with a slotted spoon and add all copped vegetables (except canned tomatoes).

Sautee vegetables and garlic about 3-4 minutes until they begin to wilt.

5
Bring to a boil, stir and reduce heat to a simmer.

Cook on low for 20 minutes, stir once or twice during cooking to prevent sticking.
