Dak Bulgogi (Korean Style Spicy Chicken) Kabobs. Dak galbi or dakgalbi (닭갈비, Korean spicy chicken stir fry) is by far my all time favorite Korean dish.

Dak bulgogi is a variation made with chicken.

In this recipe, I used boneless chicken thigh, but you can use boneless breast or a combination of both parts. Dak Bulgogi (Korean Spicy Chicken) is a must-try for spicy food lovers.

Ingredients of Dak Bulgogi (Korean Style Spicy Chicken) Kabobs

1. It's 12-15 of bamboo skewers soaked in water for at least an hour.
2. Prepare 2-2.5 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into roughly 1.5-inch *cubes* (to the extent that you can cut chicken thigh meat into cubes, which is to say not really).
3. Prepare 2 Tablespoons of minced garlic (about 3 cloves).
4. Prepare 1 teaspoon of minced fresh ginger root (or you could use about 1/4 teaspoon dry ginger powder).
5. It's 1 of green onion, finely chopped.
6. Prepare 1/8 cup of sugar.
7. You need 1/8 cup of gochujang (Korean red chili paste) You can substitute with sriracha - not quite the same, but you'll get a tasty result.
8. It's 1/8 cup of low sodium soy sauce.
9. You need 1 teaspoon of kosher salt.
10. You need 1.5 Tablespoons of neutral oil (like vegetable, canola, grapeseed).
11. It's 1 of large onion, cut into 1" pieces for skewering and tossed with 2 teaspoonfuls of oil.

It is especially great with chicken or pork. The Korean BBQ chicken turned out just as well as the beef version! I quite enjoyed the way the sweet marinade played with the heat and flavours of the gochujang and I could hardly resist snacking on the meat every time I passed it.

Dak Bulgogi (Korean Style Spicy Chicken) Kabobs instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, mix together all the ingredients except the onion, making sure to incorporate all of them thoroughly..
2. Cover the bowl and set in the fridge to marinate (about 1 hour ideally, and not more than 2). Remember to take the meat out of the fridge about 30 minutes before you're ready to grill. If you're using a charcoal grill, start your coals about 20 to 25 minutes before you want to grill. You want a gentle, medium low heat over which to cook these kebabs. If gas, just pre-heat your grill to medium low 5 to 7 minutes before cooking..
3. Skewer your kabobs so they look like this. 6 single layers of onion with 5 roughly 1"layers of chicken skewered between them. As you've probably discovered by now, it's a little challenging to get 1" cubes of meat from chicken thighs, but you generally want a 1" thickness of meat between veg, so you might have to add odd pieces of chicken to the bigger ones to achieve this thickness. I used only onions mostly because I think it tastes simple and delicious this way..
4. Over a medium low grill, cook the kebabs about 15 minutes, covered, turning them every 5 minutes..
5. Enjoy!.

Chicken doesn't stand up well to this kind of treatment so it is pan fried. This is a very easy recipe and one that I love to make. Bulgogi means fire meat in Korean and is traditionally cooked on a grill or over an open flame. Cooking for two can be hard when I have to buy pounds of chicken or beef at This chicken bulgogi is just slightly spicy, salty and sweet. The chicken is cooked and grilled Korean-style Buttercream Bread.
