Note

For a crispier exterior, broil the chicken for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, watching closely to prevent burning.

If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash of water or chicken broth to thin it out before baking.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.

For extra flavor, add minced garlic or chopped onions to the baking dish along with the chicken.

Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
