Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure all of your ingredients are measured, chopped, and ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use a large skillet: A large skillet will give you plenty of room to cook all of the ingredients without overcrowding the pan.
  • Brown the meat in batches: If you're cooking a lot of meat, brown it in batches to prevent the pan from getting too crowded and the meat from steaming instead of browning.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: When you add the vegetables to the skillet, don't overcrowd it. This will help the vegetables cook evenly and prevent them from getting mushy.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to season the dish to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices.
  • Serve immediately: Arizona skillet dinner is best served immediately after it's cooked.
