Notes
Adjust Cooking Times: Keep an eye on the chicken and potatoes during the cooking process. Cooking times may vary depending on the size and thickness of your ingredients, so be prepared to adjust the timing if needed.
Enhance Flavor: Feel free to experiment with additional herbs and spices to suit your personal taste preferences. A sprinkle of dried rosemary or thyme can add an extra layer of flavor.
Prevent Dry Chicken: To avoid dry chicken, be sure not to overcook the dish. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F before serving.
Proper Storage: If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop when ready to enjoy.
