Serving Advice

Serve with a simple green salad or coleslaw to add freshness. Pickles or crispy potato chips on the side make a nice contrast in texture. A cold glass of iced tea or lemonade complements the sweet and sour flavors well.

How To Store Leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to keep the bread from getting too soft. If the sauce thickens after cooling, stir in a little water before reheating.
