              Notes

              For a gluten-free version, use tamari or coconut aminos instead of soy sauce. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in a skillet with a splash of water to loosen the sauce, or microwave gently to avoid drying out the chicken.
