Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Cut the 1 lb chicken thighs into bite-size pieces. Trim and halve the 0.5 lb Brussels sprouts, slice the 1 red bell pepper and 1 onion into strips.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.

  3. Step 3

    In the same skillet, add the Brussels sprouts, pepper, and onion. Stir-fry until the sprouts are charred and tender, about 5 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Return the chicken to the skillet. Add the 2 tbsp gochujang and 1 tbsp soy sauce. Stir-fry everything until the sauce coats the meat and vegetables, about 2 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Serve hot, with rice if you like.
