Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 rotisserie chicken fully cooked
  • 1/2 cup Korean BBQ sauce store-bought or homemade
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger grated
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 green onions green onions sliced, for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds for garnish

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Skillet
  • Mixing spoon
  • Fork or hands for shredding

Method
 

  1. Start by shredding the rotisserie chicken into bite-sized pieces. You can use two forks or your hands to pull the meat apart.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the Korean BBQ sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, and rice vinegar. Mix well to create the marinade.
  3. Add the shredded chicken to the bowl with the marinade. Toss until the chicken is thoroughly coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes, or up to an hour for deeper flavor.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  5. Serve the Korean BBQ Chicken over rice or in lettuce wraps. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.

Notes

Chef's Tips:
• For a spicier version, add a teaspoon of gochujang to the marinade.
• Avoid overcooking the chicken to prevent it from drying out.
• Serve with kimchi for a traditional Korean meal experience.
Food Safety:
• Ensure the rotisserie chicken is stored at safe temperatures before use.
• Refrigerate leftovers promptly and consume within 3 days.
