Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor: Fresh chicken, vegetables, and herbs will make your cheesy chicken pasta stew taste its best.

- Use a variety of vegetables: The more vegetables you use, the more flavorful your stew will be. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, bell peppers, and zucchini.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this stew, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well, like cheddar or mozzarella.
- Season the stew to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of white wine or chicken broth for extra flavor.
- Serve the stew with a side of bread or pasta: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.
