Tips
When coating the chicken with cornflour, make sure it’s well coated. You can skip cornflour if you don’t have it.
When making the glaze, add ingredients on low heat and stir until it starts to bubble lightly, then reduce for 3-4 minutes until it thickens.
You can store the cucumbers separately and warm up the meal prep without them. They are better served cold.
Gochujang can be substituted for tomato paste mixed with sriracha.
