Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, excess fat trimmed
  • 2/3 cup dry jasmine rice, cooked according to package directions (124 grams)
  • 2 cups Mother-in-Law's House Kimchi (448 grams)
  • 1 medium cucumber, sliced thinly (200 grams)
  • 1 large avocado, diced (150 grams)
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Creamy Gochujang Sauce (4 fl oz)
Bulgogi Marinade
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce (2 fl oz)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar (27 grams)
  • 2 tbsp mirin (1 fl oz)
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil (0.5 fl oz)
  • 1 tbsp Gochujang (0.5 fl oz)
  • 1 tbsp fresh grated ginger (0.5 fl oz)
  • 2 cloves garlic, sliced (8 grams)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add all marinade ingredients to a jar and shake until oil has emulsified. Pour over chicken thighs in a resealable airtight container and toss until chicken is evenly coated. Cover and set aside in refrigerator for at least 30 mins or up to overnight.
  2. Pre-heat grill to 400°F. Generously oil the grill grates to prevent sticking, then add marinated chicken thighs, allowing excess marinade to drip off before placing on the grill. Grill for approx. 6 minutes per side or until internal temperature of thickest part of chicken thigh reaches 165°F.
  3. Assemble the bowls by layering rice, kimchi, cucumbers, avocado, and sliced chicken in the bowl. Top with Creamy Gochujang Sauce, green onions, and sesame seeds, if desired.

Notes

  • The overall spice level of this dish is mild as written, but can be made spicier depending on the kimchi you use.
