Instructions
- 1
Blanch chicken pieces in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain, rinse, and pat dry. Blanching removes impurities and results in a cleaner-tasting final dish.

Mix gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, rice wine, garlic, and ginger to make the sauce paste.

In a wide, heavy pot, combine blanched chicken, potatoes, carrots, and onion. Pour sauce paste over everything and add water. Toss to coat all ingredients.

Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium-low. Cover and cook 25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and chicken is cooked through.

Remove lid and increase heat to medium-high. Cook 10 more minutes until the sauce thickens and reduces to a glossy, caramelized coating on the chicken and vegetables. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
