Use budget-friendly options like chicken thighs or drumsticks. Marinate in Azeka’s Sauce and bake or grill for a rich, satisfying meal.
Rice Bowls for the Win
Rice is one of the most cost-effective staples – and it becomes a full meal with the right toppings. Add sautéed veggies, a fried egg, and a generous drizzle of sauce.
