- Cook the chicken first: Cook the chicken until it is browned and cooked through before adding the potatoes. This will help prevent the potatoes from becoming soggy.
- Season the chicken and potatoes well: Use a generous amount of salt, pepper, and garlic powder to season the chicken and potatoes. This will help bring out the flavor of the dish.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet: When adding the potatoes to the skillet, make sure not to overcrowd it. Overcrowding will prevent the potatoes from cooking evenly.
- Cook the potatoes until they are tender: Cook the potatoes until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooking the potatoes will make them mushy.
- Add the vegetables: Once the potatoes are cooked, add the vegetables and cook until they are tender. This will add color and flavor to the dish.
- Serve immediately: Serve the chicken and potato skillet immediately after cooking. This will ensure that the dish is hot and fresh.
