Chef Paddy’s Tips

  • Use a Cast Iron Skillet: For a dramatic, sizzling table presentation that stays warm longer.
  • Don’t Skip the Pickled Onions: Their bite cuts through the richness and balances every layer.
  • Add a Hot Honey Drizzle: After baking, finish with a quick drizzle of hot honey for sweet heat that slaps.

Let’s cook with heart and hustle.
