Critical Success Points
- • Caramelizing the brown sugar without burning it.
- • Ensuring the initial liquid evaporates before adding water – this builds flavor.
- • Cooking the chicken until tender but not shredding.
Safety Warnings
- • Hot oil and caramelized sugar can cause severe burns – keep a lid nearby.
- • Handle raw chicken with separate utensils and wash hands thoroughly to avoid cross‑contamination.
