- 8-oz can of tomato paste
- 5 chicken bouillon cubes

- ¼-½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (I am not big on spicy, so I used only ¼ teaspoon)

Directions
1. Preheat a 6-quart slow cooker to high. (Note: You can also cook this in a large pot on the stove. Adjust the cooking time to about an hour if cooking on high on the stove).
2. While you prepare the vegetables, throw the chicken chunks into the crock pot for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. (Skip this step if you”™re making a vegetarian version)
