What if today we turn free-range chicken into something unusual? Usually at home, free-range chicken is always made into curry or rendang, but this time I'm going to make it different from usual. Stepping out of my comfort zone, since my mom is tired of eating the same old free-range chicken, today I'm going to try making it into something different at home. Namely, a savory and delicious sweet and spicy dish.

This sweet and spicy chicken is a simple dish, but the combination of common spices makes it even more delicious and different from the usual. Everyone will surely love this combination. My husband and mother, who are lovers of free-range chicken, say that this will be our special menu if I manage to make them ask for seconds when breaking their fast later. Well, instead of being curious, let's take a look at the recipe.
