Instructions
Get the Perfect Blackened Chicken:
- Use high heat to create that signature blackened crust without overcooking the chicken.
- A cast-iron skillet is the best option for even heat distribution.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing to keep it juicy.
How to Roast Sweet Potatoes Perfectly:
- Spread them in a single layer on the baking sheet so they roast evenly.
- Toss them halfway through cooking to ensure crisp, caramelized edges.
- Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or smoked paprika for extra depth of flavor.
Creamy Avocado Dressing Tip:
- If the dressing is too thick, add a little water or lime juice to thin it out.
- Store it with plastic wrap pressed directly on the surface to prevent browning.
