  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready.
  • Choose the Right Cut of Chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work best for this dish.
  • Marinate the Chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs helps to tenderize and flavor it.
  • Cook the Chicken Properly: Cook the chicken over medium heat until it is cooked through but still juicy. Overcooking will make the chicken dry and tough.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, and chives, add a delicious flavor to the dish.
  • Serve Immediately: Chicken amandine is best served immediately after it is cooked.
