Frequently Asked Questions:
What other seasonings could I add to this recipe?
You can adjust the seasonings to your liking. Some people might enjoy a bit of heat, so adding a bit of cayenne pepper or chili flakes could be a good idea.
Other options could include adding more herbs like parsley, thyme, or oregano.
What can I do if I don’t have an oven to bake the chicken?
If you don’t have an oven, you can pan-fry the chicken on the stove. Cook the chicken on medium heat until it is no longer pink in the middle.
Then, you can add the cheesy mixture and cover the pan to allow the cheese to melt from the residual heat.
How do I know when the chicken is cooked?
The best way to ensure that your chicken is cooked is by using a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) when inserted into the thickest part of the chicken.
If you don’t have a thermometer, you can cut into the thickest part of the chicken to check; the meat should be white and the juices should run clear.
