Recipe Notes
Â
If you don’t have five-spice powder, you can substitute it with 1 small pinch of ground star anise, ground cloves, and ground white pepper. Also, make sure to use aluminum foil to bake as aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.
