KOREAN CHILLI, SESAME & HONEY CHICKEN



Korean chilli, sesame & honey chicken image

A kebab always goes down well at a BBQ, and this Korean chicken with sweet, spicy and sticky glaze is our new favourite. Scatter over spring onions to serve

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Supper

Time 35m

Yield Serves 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 chicken thighs , boneless and skinless
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
thumb-sized piece ginger , grated
4 spring onions , sliced
4 tbsp Korean chilli paste (gochujang) or use a mixture of 3 tbsp ketchup and 1 tbsp sriracha chilli sauce
2 tbsp honey
juice ½ lime
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
2 tbsp sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Toss the chicken in the soy sauce, sesame oil and ginger. Thread each thigh on two long metal skewers, so that each skewer pierces one side of the thigh. Keep threading the chicken, making sure it's packed onto the skewers tightly. Chill until you're ready to cook. Mix the ingredients for the glaze.
  • Heat the BBQ. If using a coal BBQ, wait for the coals to turn ashen before you start cooking. Cook the kebab for 5-8 mins on each side (depending on the heat). Once nicely charred but not fully cooked through, start painting on the glaze. The honey will catch if cooked for too long - the key to nice sticky chicken is applying the glaze in layers, turning the kebab often.
  • Once the glaze has been used up and the chicken is cooked through (it'll take about 20 mins in total), transfer to a plate and leave to cool for 5 mins before serving scattered with spring onions.

  • If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the chicken skewers in a pan on the stovetop over medium heat.
  • The honey sesame sauce is what really makes these chicken skewers special. Be sure to make plenty of it, so that you have extra for dipping.
