As my ‘Gochujang Chicken’ has been very popular among my family and friends, I made it into a rice bowl dish today. This is the recipe for 1 serving. It would be easy to multiply for larger number of servings. You need to add some vegetables. Sautéed leafy vegetable would be perfect, but it can be a simple salad. For the photo above, I used Iceberg Lettuce seasoned with just Salt and Sesame Oil, and it was really good.
