Before you start
Gather the ingredients and the pan or pot before turning on the heat. These steps keep the cooking efficient while still spelling out the key heat settings, doneness cues, and safe handling details.
Safe temp: Poultry
165°F · Use a food thermometer
1. Step 1
Chop all vegetables. Prepare the pieces evenly, keep the work surface stable, and have the next pan or bowl ready before continuing.
2. Step 2
Lower the heat to medium-low, add the liquid gradually while stirring, and bring the sauce to a gentle simmer. Once it coats a spoon, reduce the heat to low or off before adding cheese so it melts smoothly; loosen with a splash of liquid if needed.
Poultry: 165°F. Use a food thermometer and check the center of the thickest piece without touching bone.
3. Step 3
Reduce the heat to low or off, add the ingredients in the listed order, and stir or toss until evenly coated. Adjust the texture with a small splash of liquid or a short rest over low heat, then taste and season before serving.
4. Finish and serve
Turn off the heat, rest the food briefly if it is hot or saucy, then taste and add the listed toppings before plating. Handle the pan with dry oven mitts.
