  • Author: Chef Mia
  • Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

– 2 lbs chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
– 3 tablespoons gochujang
– 1/4 cup honey
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
– 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– Sesame seeds, for garnish
– Chopped green onions, for garnish


Instructions

Creating Sticky Honey Gochujang Chicken can be a fun and simple process if you follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, mix gochujang, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, vegetable oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken thighs in a large resealable bag or bowl. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it’s well coated. Seal the bag or cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
3. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking the chicken.
4. Arrange the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Reserve the leftover marinade for later.
5. Bake the Chicken: Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, brush the chicken with the reserved marinade halfway through cooking to enhance the flavor.
6. Check for Doneness: Ensure the chicken is cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). If it needs more time, continue baking for an additional 5-10 minutes.
7. Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.

By following these simple steps, you’ll create the most incredible Sticky Honey Gochujang Chicken that will leave everyone wanting more!
