Ingredients

Servings
  • 1/2 pear peeled and grated, Korean
  • 1/2 onion peeled and grated, medium
  • 3 garlic minced, cloves
  • 2 teaspoons ginger freshly grated
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce 118 ml
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon gochugaru Korean red pepper powder
  • black pepper large pinch, freshly ground
  • 2 pounds chicken thighs cut into 2 in. x 1 in. strips (5 cm x 2.5 cm, boneless, 1 kg

Garnish:

  • sesame seeds
  • green onion thinly sliced
  • white rice steamed

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the pear, onion, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, mirin, sesame oil, gochugaru, and black pepper until well blended.
  2. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, combining to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 3-6 hours to overnight.
  3. Heat a large grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly grease. Remove the chicken from the marinade and arrange in batches in a single layer across the hot pan. Grill on each side until cooked through with golden grill marks, about 3-5 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining chicken, adjusting the temperature between medium and medium-high as needed to keep the chicken from burning.
  4. Serve immediately with rice and garnished with sesame seeds and green onions.
