Cooking tips 💡
- Marinating the chicken for about 30 minutes allows the flavor to penetrate deeply, eliminating any gamey smell and greatly enhancing the taste.
- To prevent the firm sweet potato from burning, use the natural moisture released by the vegetables and cook over medium heat for gentle, even browning.
