Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 6 pieces chicken thighs (boneless, keep the skin on)
  • 2 cloves garlic (grated with a microplane)
  • 3 stalks green onions (white and green parts separated)
Marinade
  • 2 tbsp gochujang paste
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 3 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil

Method
 

Preparation
  1. If your chicken thighs are still on the bone, debone them while keeping the skin on for extra flavor.
  2. In a bowl, mix together the gochujang paste, honey, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame oil to prepare the marinade.
  3. Add in the grated garlic and the white parts of the green onions, then stir well until fully combined.
  4. Coat the chicken thighs in the marinade and let them sit for at least 30 minutes (overnight is better!).
Cooking
  1. Cook the chicken in a skillet over medium-high heat or bake in the oven until caramelized and cooked through.

Notes

Serve over fluffy rice with steamed broccoli or cucumber salad. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for 2 months.
