*****I like to season everything individually for lots of layers of flavor, I do not season in the pan I season everything when it is set aside BEFORE it goes into the pan - (Season to taste ex: Salt, Pepper, Oregeno, Basil, Garlic Powder, Mrs. Dash any seasoning combo you like)*****

pre-heat oven safe pan to medium on the stove & pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees
