Notes
- You may use boneless and skinless chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts
- 5 spices: Five-spice powder is typically made from a mixture of five different spices: cinnamon, cloves, fennel seeds, star anise, and Szechuan peppercorns.
- You may bake covered or uncovered. If you decide to bake it covered, uncover it last 10 minutes so the liquid that comes out evaporates a bit
