RECIPE: Bulgogi-Style Chicken (Korean BBQ Chicken)
Marinated for 30-minutes in the sweet, savory flavor of McCormick Korean Gochugaru Style Seasoning, then grilled and served over rice with fresh vegetables and kimchi, weeknight meals don’t get any easier – or more delicious – than this.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 16 minutes
Mix 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons McCormick Korean Gochugaru Seasoning, 2 tablespoons honey, 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons mirin (optional) and 1 teaspoon sesame oil in small bowl until well blended. Reserve 2 tablespoons marinade; set aside. Place 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (trimmed) and remaining marinade in large resealable plastic bag. Turn to coat well. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes. Remove chicken from marinade. Discard any remaining marinade. Sprinkle chicken evenly with 1 tablespoon Korean Gochugaru Seasoning. Grill over medium-high heat 6 to 8 minutes per side or until cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F), basting halfway through with reserved marinade. Slice chicken and garnish with 1 tablespoon chopped green onion. Serve with hot cooked rice, sliced fresh vegetables and kimchi, if desired. Makes 8 servings.
