Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your dish comes together quickly and easily.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher and better quality your ingredients are, the tastier your dish will be. If possible, use organic or locally sourced ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: When cooking the chicken and vegetables, make sure not to overcrowd the skillet. This will prevent the ingredients from cooking evenly and will result in a soggy dish.
  • Season to taste: Always season your dish to taste. This means tasting the dish as you cook it and adjusting the seasonings as needed.
  • Let the dish rest before serving: Once the dish is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and will make the dish more enjoyable.
