Tips:
- Prep everything beforehand: Before you start cooking, take some time to measure out your ingredients, chop your vegetables, and gather your cooking equipment. This will make the cooking process much smoother and faster.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking meat or vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will cause the food to steam instead of sear, resulting in soggy, undercooked food.
- Cook meat to the proper temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that your meat is cooked to the proper temperature. This will help to prevent foodborne illness and ensure that the meat is cooked to your liking.
- Season your food: Don't forget to season your food! Salt, pepper, and other spices can help to enhance the flavor of your dishes.
- Garnish your dishes: A simple garnish can make a big difference in the presentation of your dishes. Try adding a sprig of parsley, a dollop of sour cream, or a sprinkling of chopped nuts to your finished dishes.
