Notes
- Use boneless, skinless chicken thighs for easier eating and faster cooking.
- For a thicker sauce, you can remove the chicken after cooking and simmer the sauce on stovetop to reduce.
- Substitute soy sauce with tamari for gluten-free version.
- Adding a pinch of red pepper flakes can give a subtle spicy kick.
- Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 3 days and taste great reheated.
