  • 1 lb boneless chicken thighs or breasts, thinly sliced into bite-sized pieces salt and pepper

FOR SAUCE:

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Gochujang (Korean chili paste)–use more or less to adjust for how much heat you want. May substitute Sriracha or other hot sauce, if preferred.

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger

  • toasted sesame seeds
  • 1-2 chopped scallions

Directions

In large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil on medium-high heat. Add half of chicken and spread out in single layer, sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook until browned, flip over with tongs and brown other side. Remove to a plate, and brown remaining chicken, adding more oil to pan, if needed.

While chicken browns, combine sauce ingredients in small bowl.

Return all chicken to skillet, pour in sauce, toss chicken until evenly coated and simmer for 2-4 minutes until sauce is thickened.
