Notes

To store leftovers, let the chicken cool down to room temperature. Place it in an airtight container and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can also freeze it for longer storage. Just make sure to use a freezer-safe container. Thaw in the fridge before reheating. You can adjust the level of sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar. For added flavor, marinate the chicken in soy sauce and garlic for a few hours before cooking.
