1. The skin helps to keep the chicken moist and make the meat more tender and flavorful. Plus, the cooked chicken skin itself is super delicious. I recommend using skin-on chicken leg/thigh.
2. I used dried chili pepper to add some heat to the dish, however, this is optional.
3. Toasted sesame oil has a richer flavor than regular sesame oil, but if you don’t have it at hand, regular sesame oil will work too.
4. Rock sugar (also known as crystal sugar) is slightly less sweet in taste compared to cane sugar.
