Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large shallow pot or wide skillet over medium-high until it shimmers.

  2. Step 2

    Working in batches, sear the chicken, shrimp, and beef 90 seconds per side until surface is opaque. Remove and set aside.

  3. Step 3

    Add ginger and garlic to the pot, stir for 30 seconds until fragrant, then pour in broth, gochujang, soy sauce, and spices.

  4. Step 4

    Bring to a simmer, then return the seared proteins to the pot. Cover and simmer 6 minutes until shrimp is cooked through.

  5. Step 5

    Add fresh greens to the pot and stir gently until they begin to wilt, about 60 seconds. Taste and adjust seasoning.

  6. Step 6

    Serve straight from the pot into bowls with the hot broth, proteins, and greens. Drizzle with a touch more soy sauce if desired.
