Tips:
- Prep Work: Before you start cooking, make sure to thoroughly wash and chop all of your vegetables. This will save you time and ensure that your dish is evenly cooked.
- Spice it Up: If you like a little heat, feel free to add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the dish. This will give it a nice kick without overpowering the other flavors.
- Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro, parsley, or basil can really brighten up the dish and add a pop of flavor. If you don't have any fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less since they are more concentrated.
- Don't Overcook the Vegetables: Overcooked vegetables can become mushy and lose their flavor. Be sure to cook them until they are tender but still have a bit of a bite to them.
- Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the vegetables are at their peak flavor and texture.
