Chicken bulgogi is an easy and short Korean BBQ fowl recipe made with gochujang. you may grill this barely sweet and savoury chicken, broil it inside the oven, or pan-fry it.

If you hear the phrase, Bulgogi, you immediately think of the famous Korean beef dish. However, Bulgogi doesn’t restrict to red meat. You can also cook chicken bulgogi, the Korean BBQ chicken, and you’ll be surprised how amazing chicken tastes.

Bulgogi can be made with soy sauce based seasoning, which has its personal precise savoury taste, but I regularly want to enjoy my chicken bulgogi seasoned with gochujang (Korean chilli paste). Typically, boneless skinless chicken thigh meat is favoured over breast.

Usually  chicken bulgogi is cooked on a grill, however you may additionally use a different cooking method; along with broiling or pan-frying. Either way, this Korean barbecue chicken is one of the smooth Korean dinner recipes.

WHAT DOES BULGOGI MEAN?

“Bul” means fire and “gogi” means meat in Korean. As it explains, chicken bulgogi means chicken meat barbecued over a fire.

That’s why so many Korean restaurants have an open grill in the middle of each serving table. It’s there to cook the meat at your table so that you can enjoy a live Bar b q right away. Bulgogi is unique to the Korean food culture that you don’t find elsewhere.

  2. Broil: Put an oven shelving 5-6 inch below the heat source, preheat the oven to broil. Place a greased cooling rack on a large baking sheet (half sheet size), lay the chicken pieces without overlapping. Broil 4-5 minutes on each side. Make sure to keep an eye on your chicken so that you don’t char them too much.

Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until chicken is fully cooked. If the sauce burns and starts sticking to the skillet, wipe it out with a wet kitchen paper.
