Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a small bowl, mix 3 tbsp gochujang, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and 1 tbsp honey until smooth. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Cut 1.5 lb chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces. Heat a large skillet over medium-high and add the chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Pour the sauce over the chicken and stir to coat. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and clings to the chicken.

  4. Step 4

    Slice 3 green onions and 0.5 cup daikon radish into thin matchsticks. Serve the chicken topped with the green onions and radish.

  5. Step 5

    Enjoy hot, with rice or on its own.
