🍳 Use a non-stick pan for best results — the cheese in the coating can stick to stainless steel or cast iron skillets and tear the crust.
🔄 Try the slide test after about 3 minutes on the first side: gently push the chicken with a spatula; if it slides easily, it is ready to flip. If it resists, give it another 30 to 60 seconds.
🌬️ Do not overcrowd the pan — cook in batches if needed, as overcrowding lowers the temperature and prevents proper browning.
