Ingredients

Dakgalbi Sauce

3 tbsp gochujang
3 tbsp gochugaru
3 tbsp mirin
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp minced garlic
2 tsp minced ginger

Protein/Vegetables

chopped cabbage
diced Korean sweet potato
sliced yellow onions
sliced boneless, skinless chicken thighs
shredded mozzarella cheese
tteok (rice cakes)

Instructions

Add all the sauce ingredients together and mix until well combined.
Marinate the chicken thighs in the dakgalbi sauce for a minimum of 30 minutes. Overnight would be best!
Sauté the marinated chicken over medium low heat until 50% cooked.
Add in the vegetables and rice cakes along with an extra 1-2 tbsp of sauce if you want your dakgalbi to be saucey.
Cover the ingredients halfway with water so that the tteok and sweet potatoes can cook properly. If you're not using tteok or sweet potatoes then you can omit this step and continue to stir fry until all the ingredients are completely cooked.
Melt a generous portion of cheese.
Garnish with green onions.
Enjoy!
