Step 1
Cut the 1.5 lb chicken thighs into bite-size pieces. Peel and chop the 2 potatoes into 1-inch chunks, and slice the 1 onion into wedges.
Step 2
In a large pot, combine the chicken, potatoes, onion, 2 tbsp gochujang, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and 1 cup water. Stir to coat everything.
Step 3
Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium-low. Cover and simmer until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Step 4
Uncover and simmer for 3-5 minutes more, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the chicken and potatoes.
Step 5
Slice the 2 green onions and sprinkle over the stew. Serve hot with rice, and top with sesame seeds if you have them.
