Notes

This dish is versatile; feel free to customize based on available ingredients.
To store, keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze in portions for quick meals.
If freezing, skip adding parsley until reheating to keep it fresh.
Using a cast-iron skillet enhances caramelization and flavor, so consider using one for the best results.
