Cooking

  2. Place the marinated chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

For deeper flavor, marinate the chicken for a few hours or overnight. You can use different cuts of chicken or customize the glaze with chili flakes for spice. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days or freeze for three months.
