    I tried making these and they burned. The sauce was too thin. Maybe it was my fault.

      Don’t be too hard on yourself! Baking can be tricky. Maybe try reducing the cooking time or checking the temperature next time? The sauce can be thickened with a bit of cornstarch if you’re into that! Good luck!

    So easy to make! I just used regular rice and it was still great.

    Can you use chicken instead of beef? I’m allergic to beef.
