💡 Professionelle Tips
- ✓For a deeper flavor, marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes in a mixture of lime juice, garlic, and herbs before browning.
- ✓If the sauce is too thin, you can remove the chicken and simmer the sauce uncovered for a few minutes to reduce it.
- ✓Adjust the amount of scotch bonnet pepper to your spice preference, or omit it entirely.
