Notes

Leftovers taste just as good! Store any uneaten portions in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. For longer storage, consider freezing it for up to a month. When reheating, ensure it reaches a temperature of 165°F to maintain safety and flavor. Don’t hesitate to experiment with extra spices or fresh herbs to elevate the dish.
