Step 1
Pat rabbit dry with paper towels. Season with salt and white pepper.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, ~90 seconds.
Step 3
Add rabbit in a single layer. Sear without stirring for 3 minutes until golden; then stir and cook 3 more minutes until mostly cooked through.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk gochujang, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil until smooth.
Step 5
Push rabbit to the side of the skillet. Add small fish fillets, cook 2 minutes per side until crispy, then remove and break into bite-sized pieces.
Step 6
Pour gochujang glaze into the center of the skillet. Toss rabbit to coat, then fold in peanuts, crispy fish, and most of the scallions. Cook 1 more minute until the sauce clings to the meat.
Step 7
Serve immediately, garnished with remaining scallions. The dish should glisten and steam.
