Cut chicken into pieces and brown in a pot for 5 minutes.

Remove chicken and brown vegetables in the same pot.

Add chopped green bell pepper, onion, carrots, and whole garlic cloves to the pot.

Season vegetables with salt, pepper, and oregano, and sauté until they begin to soften.

Add browned chicken back to the pot and cover with approximately 3 to 4 liters of water.

Bring to a boil and simmer for at least 30 minutes to cook the chicken thoroughly.

Prepare the corn flour mixture by combining 250 grams of corn flour with 100 grams of cheese and 50 grams of grated cheese.

Hydrate the corn flour mixture with the broth from the pot, mixing until it forms a dough.

Form small balls from the corn flour mixture, about 2-3 cm in diameter.

Drop the balls into the simmering broth and cook for 15 minutes until they float to the surface.

Add chopped parsley before serving.
