Marinade

Chicken

Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, mix together soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, gochujang, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, add the boneless chicken thighs. Pour the marinade over the chicken and ensure all pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for best flavor.

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 3

    Grill or Sauté

    Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through and nicely charred. If using a skillet, sauté the chicken pieces for about the same time, ensuring they are cooked through.

  2. 4

    Rest the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Serving

  1. 5

    Prepare for Serving

    Serve the sliced chicken bulgogi over steamed rice, garnished with sesame seeds. Provide lettuce leaves on the side for wrapping.
