- Sugar can be substituted for honey.
- Add red pepper flakes or hot sauce to add a kick.
- We used chicken thighs because of their flavour and they don’t dry out like chicken breasts do as they cook. You can substitute chicken breasts for thighs, just remember, they’ll cook quicker.
- Serve with rice or noodles.
- To save time, rather than finely chopping garlic and ginger, you can finely grate them instead.
