Method

  1. 1

    In a dry pan over medium heat, add the chopped white onion, spring onion, garlic, shallots, and ginger.

  2. 2

    Roast the aromatics, stirring occasionally, until they develop beautiful char marks.

  3. 3

    Add the gochujang and sesame oil to the pan. Mix well until everything is combined and fragrant.

  4. 4

    Pour in the water and soy sauce.

  5. 5

    Using a small sieve, dissolve the miso paste into the liquid.

  6. 6

    Cover the pan with a lid, bring to a simmer, and let it cook while you prepare the rice.

  7. 7

    In a separate pot, melt the butter over medium heat.

  8. 8

    Add the finely chopped garlic, soy sauce, and miso paste. Stir to combine.

  9. 9

    Add the washed white rice to the pot, followed by the water.

  10. 10

    Bring to a simmer, then cover with a lid left slightly ajar. Cook until all the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is fluffy.

  11. 11

    In a bowl, prepare the marinade by whisking together the gochujang, soy sauce, miso paste, honey, and black pepper.

  12. 12

    Add the chicken to the marinade and toss until it is fully coated.

  13. 13

    Heat the neutral oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat.

  14. 14

    Place the marinated chicken in the hot pan and cook for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until cooked through and nicely charred.

  15. 15

    Towards the end of cooking, pour any remaining marinade over the chicken and let it caramelize.

  16. 16

    Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside to rest before slicing.

  17. 17

    In the same pan used for the chicken, add the green beans and whole spring onions.

  18. 18

    Fry for a few minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.

  19. 19

    Place a generous portion of the fluffy rice in the center of a shallow bowl.

  20. 20

    Strain the broth through a sieve, pouring it around the rice.

  21. 21

    Slice the cooked chicken and arrange it over the rice.

  22. 22

    Top with the charred green beans and spring onions.

  23. 23

    Garnish with a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds and finely chopped fresh spring onion before serving.
