Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 ½ tablespoons Korean chile paste (gochujang)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Korean red chile flakes (gochugaru)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (1 inch) piece ginger, peeled and minced
- 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs, pounded if desired
Steps
- Combine soy sauce, vegetable oil, chile paste, sesame oil, chile flakes, garlic, and ginger in a large bowl; whisk until chile paste is completely dissolved. Add chicken and stir to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Grill chicken until slightly charred and no longer pink in the center, 5 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
