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.
