Frequently asked questions
- How long does Savory Herb Infused Chicken Hash take?
- About 30 minutes: 10 minutes of prep and 20 minutes of cooking, all in one large skillet.
- How do I get crispy edges on Savory Herb Infused Chicken Hash?
- Spread the vegetables in a single layer in the hot pan and leave them undisturbed for a few minutes before stirring. Crowding the pan steams them instead of browning.
- Can I use potatoes instead of chayote squash?
- Yes, diced potatoes make a more classic hash. Parboil them first or cook them longer, as they take more time than chayote.
- What should I serve with chicken hash for breakfast?
- Top it with a fried or poached egg, or serve it with toast. A squeeze of lemon and fresh parsley brighten the savoury flavours.
- Can I make chicken hash ahead of time?
- Yes, cook it and keep it in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat it in a hot pan rather than the microwave so the edges crisp up again.
