Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat chicken thighs dry and arrange skin-side up on a sheet pan.

  3. Step 3

    Brush the gochujang mixture all over the chicken, coating skin and underside generously.

  4. Step 4

    Roast for 12–14 minutes until skin crisps and an instant-read thermometer reads 165°F at the thickest part.

  5. Step 5

    Scatter green onion over top. Serve hot with rice or steamed vegetables.
