Korean Baked Chicken Breast:
Sweet, savory, and slightly spicy baked chicken with classic Korean flavors of gochujang, garlic, and sesame.
Ingredients:
• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste)
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
• 1 tsp sesame seeds (for garnish)
Steps
1. Whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste), 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil, 4 garlic cloves, minced, 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1/4 tsp black pepper in a bowl.
2. Add 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts to the marinade, coating well. Cover and refrigerate.
3. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking dish with foil or parchment.
4. Place marinated chicken in the baking dish, spooning extra marinade on top. Bake until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
5. Let chicken rest for 5 minutes, then top with 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish) and 1 tsp sesame seeds (for garnish) before serving.
Notes
For a caramelized top, broil for 2-3 minutes at the end (watch closely to avoid burning). Great served over rice with sautéed vegetables. If you don’t have gochujang, sriracha works as a substitute with a slightly different flavor profile.
