Print Recipe

A delightful Korean BBQ Chicken Bowl with juicy marinated chicken, fresh vegetables, and fluffy rice, embodying vibrant flavors and textures.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 4 cups cooked rice (for serving)
  • 1 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup cooked edamame (shelled)
  • 1/2 cup kimchi (optional)
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • 2 tbsp green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the gochujang, low-sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and rice vinegar until smooth.
  2. Toss the bite-sized chicken pieces in the marinade, ensuring they are coated thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken in a single layer, cooking for 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through and caramelized.
  4. Divide the warm rice into serving bowls, topping each bowl with the cooked chicken and arranging the cucumber, carrots, edamame, and kimchi around them.
  5. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

Consider marinating chicken thighs overnight for enhanced flavor. Customize your bowl with different vegetables as desired.
