Creating your Gochujang Chicken is a straightforward process. Follow these easy steps for a delicious outcome:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, mix the gochujang, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and rice vinegar until well combined.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
3. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
4. Cook the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade and add it to the hot skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
5. Add Vegetables: Once the chicken is cooked, add the sliced bell pepper and onion to the skillet. Stir-fry for an additional 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
6. Season: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
7. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
