tips to make Blackstone Hibachi Chicken

1. Chop ingredients uniformly: Cut your chicken and vegetables into similar-sized pieces. This helps everything cook evenly.
2. Don’t overcrowd: If your griddle is small, cook in batches. Overcrowding can lead to steaming instead of searing.
3. Add spices: Feel free to add your favorite spices for a personal touch. A dash of chili flakes can bring some heat!
