Notes

Stores well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freeze for up to 2 months. Use chicken breasts instead of thighs if preferred. For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the sauce for a couple of hours before cooking. Add red pepper flakes for heat. Feel free to add other vegetables like broccoli or snap peas for extra nutrition, or substitute pineapple with mango.
