Pat chicken thighs dry. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Arrange chicken skin-side up on a sheet pan. Roast at 425°F for 18-20 minutes until skin is golden and crispy.
Step 3
While chicken cooks, mix gochujang, mirin, soy sauce, and garlic in a small bowl until smooth.
Step 4
Remove chicken from oven. Brush glaze all over each thigh, then dot with butter pieces.
Step 5
Return to oven for 3-4 minutes until glaze caramelizes and edges look sticky and glossy.
