Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
- Use a well-seasoned skillet: A well-seasoned skillet will help prevent the chicken from sticking and will also add flavor to the dish.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the chicken will not cook evenly. Make sure there is enough space between each piece of chicken so that it can cook properly.
- Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help it cook evenly and prevent it from burning.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken: The chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken rest before serving: Letting the chicken rest before serving will help it retain its juices and make it more tender.
