Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Use a large skillet: This will give the chicken plenty of room to cook evenly without overcrowding.
  • Season the chicken generously: Don't be afraid to use plenty of salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Sear the chicken in hot oil: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the chicken and lock in the juices.
  • Reduce the heat and cook the chicken until it is done: The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Make sure the sauce is simmering before adding the chicken: This will help to prevent the sauce from curdling.
  • Serve the chicken immediately: This is when it is at its best flavor and texture.
