**Gochujang Recipes: 24 Ways To Enjoy This Korean Chili Paste**
**Ingredients:**
– 1/4 cup gochujang
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil
– 1 pound chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
– Sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish (optional)
**Instructions:**
1. In a bowl, whisk together the gochujang, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and sesame oil until well combined to create the marinade.
2. Place the chicken thighs in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the chicken. Ensure the chicken is evenly coated with the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for more flavor.
3. Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
4. Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off the excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
5. Grill the chicken thighs for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked, with nice grill marks and caramelization.
6. Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into bite-sized pieces.
7. Serve the grilled gochujang chicken garnished with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired. Enjoy!
