Korean Chicken
Deeply savory, sweet, and fiery, this is a delicious Korean Chicken dish. You can use boneless skinless chicken breast for an even leaner version, or roast bone-in, skin on chicken thighs in the oven and then reduce the sauce to glaze them with for a higher fat version. I like to serve this with the Chayote Chili Salad for a full meal.

Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken thighs boneless skinless, cut into bite size pieces
- 1 tablespoon gochujang paste
- 1 tablespoon gluten-free soy sauce or 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2-2 teaspoons Korean chili flakes use 1/2 teaspoon if you are sensitive to spice and add more to taste

- 2 clove of garlic minced

Instructions
- Combine all ingredients except the green onions in a large nonstick pan. Heat over medium-high heat and cook until little liquid remains and the chicken is glossy and coated in sauce, about 10 minutes total. Sprinkle with green onions and serve.
