Instructions

  1. Combine the gochujang, gochugaru, brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and seasonings to a small bowl and mix to combine.
  2. In a large bowl or Ziploc bag, add the chicken thighs and the marinade. Toss well to combine until all the thighs are coated. Set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.
  3. Heat the grill to 400ºF or oil a stovetop grill pan and place over medium-high heat.
  4. Place the chicken thighs, smooth-side down.
  5. Cook the chicken thighs smooth side down for 4 to 5 minutes on one side.
  6. Flip and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes. Cook time will vary a bit depending on the size of your chicken thighs so use an instant read meat thermometer to check for doneness.
  7. When done, remove the chicken thighs from the grill/pan and transfer them to a plate. Cover the chicken with aluminum foil to let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • Swap the grill or grill pan for a cast iron skillet if you prefer.
