Ingredients

1. Wash the chicken thighs, dry the surface of the chicken thighs with kitchen paper, cut the meat a few times along the bones of the chicken legs, and cut as much as possible, but remember not to cut the chicken skin, so that the chicken skin remains intact. In this way, the chicken skin will not shrink when frying, and the appearance will be better. At the same time, it makes it easier to taste when marinated.
