Pour the olive oil into a pot and heat over medium temperature. While it heats up, season the chicken with salt, pepper, and oregano and cook for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and set aside. Add the garlic, onion, bell pepper, carrot, tomato, and bay leaf to the same pot where you browned the chicken. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes and add the water and parsley sprig. Let it boil. For the balls: Grate the white cheese and mix it with the corn flour, incorporating the broth from the previous cooking until you achieve a dough that comes away from the container. Form the balls and add them to the pot with the rest of the ingredients of the vorí vorí. When the balls rise to the surface, remove from the heat and let the vorí vorí rest.
