We have been meaning to do this dish for a while but didn't want to deal with cutting up chicken thighs for 20 minutes. But being the dutiful man and cook of the household
I decided to get my hands dirty and cut up some chicken things. In order to get a that single cut of "steak" from the thigh
it actu

Steps:

  • Peel off thigh skins by hand (if you're strong enough) or with paring knife. Trim off excess fat. Cut into one single "steak" piece working around the bone. Save smaller pieces for cooking as well. Rinse thighs under cold water while removing outer film and slime. Set aside in a large mixing bowl. Pulse the marinade ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Coat the chicken pieces with the marinade. Marinate overnight in the refrigerator or a minimum of 6~12 hours. With a skewer or toothpick, piercing the thighs for extra marinade absorption is optional. Preheat a skillet or non stick pan over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs and cook for about 15~ 20 minutes or until cooked through. To ensure fully cooked thighs, use a meat thermometer and check for a reading of 165-170°F. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with scallion strips. Enjoy! *If there is extra marinade sauce, adding near the end of cooking will give the thighs extra flavor. Do not add until the very end otherwise it will burn/char the thighs because of the sugars in the marinade.

DAK BULGOGI (KOREAN CHICKEN BULGOGI)

This is a very easy recipe and one that I love to make. Bulgogi means fire meat in Korean and is traditionally cooked on a grill or over an open flame. Chicken doesn't stand up well to this kind of treatment so it is pan fried.

1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs or 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, trimmed of fat
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon rice wine or 1 tablespoon mirin

1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Number Of Ingredients 12

Marinade:
1 pound boneless chicken thigh and/or breast.
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon honey (or 1-1/3 more tablespoons brown sugar)
1 tablespoon rice wine (or mirin)
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon sesame oil
pinch black pepper
1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Rinse chicken pieces. Trim off excess fat. Cut each of the chicken pieces into small sizes (about 2-inch long and 1-inch wide). Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Coat the chicken pieces with the marinade. Marinate for about 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Preheat a skillet over medium high heat. Add the chicken pieces, reserving the marinade. Cook until cooked through and slightly caramelized, about 2 minutes each side. (The sugar and honey in the marinade will burn easily, so watch it carefully and add the reserved marinade by tablespoon when the pan gets dry. You can slightly reduce the heat to avoid burning, if needed.)

Tips:

  • Use a good quality chicken: The better the chicken, the better the dak bulgogi will be. Look for chicken that is fresh and free of any blemishes.
  • Slice the chicken thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes: This will help the flavors to penetrate the chicken and make it more tender.
  • Use a hot pan: This will help to sear the chicken and prevent it from sticking.
  • Cook the chicken in batches: If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will not cook evenly.
  • Stir the chicken frequently: This will help to prevent it from burning.
  • Serve the dak bulgogi with your favorite sides: Rice, noodles, or vegetables are all good options.

Conclusion:

Dak bulgogi is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting dish to try, give dak bulgogi a try. You won't be disappointed!
