For a richer flavor, marinate the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before cooking. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to suit your spice preference. Serve over steamed jasmine rice or quinoa for a complete meal. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for added flavor and visual appeal.
