Note

Ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165ðF (74ðC) before serving.

If marinating overnight, bring the chicken to room temperature for 20-30 minutes before cooking for even roasting.

For a spicier kick, add a teaspoon of chili garlic sauce or red pepper flakes to the marinade.

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

Use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or drumsticks for best results.
