Notes
- Using low sodium soy sauce prevents the dish from becoming overly salty. However, if you only have regular soy sauce on hand, adjust the added salt to taste.
- Chicken drumsticks can be substituted with chicken thighs or breasts, but keep in mind cooking times may vary.
- If you want to make the dish spicier, feel free to increase the amount of chili flakes.
- Marinating the chicken for a few hours in the fridge can deepen the flavors. If you have time, consider preparing the chicken a day in advance for the best taste.
- Remember to turn the chicken halfway through cooking to ensure even baking and browning.
- Check the internal temperature of the chicken to ensure it reaches 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
