Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean red chili paste)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)
- 2 cups green cabbage, thinly sliced
- 1 cup carrots, julienned
- 1/2 cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: Sliced radishes for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, gochujang, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the marinade.
- Add chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
- Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from the marinade and discard the remaining marinade.
- Grill the chicken thighs for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through with an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- In a large bowl, combine sliced cabbage, shredded carrots, sliced cucumber, and chopped green onions. Add salt and pepper, then toss well.
- Once fully cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
- Assemble each bowl with a base of cooked rice, layer on the crunchy cabbage mixture, and then add sliced chicken.
- Finish by sprinkling toasted sesame seeds and optional sliced radishes on top.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
