Ingredients

• 3 lb Chicken pieces
• 2 Potatoes
• 2 Carrots
• 1 Yellow onion
• 3 tbsp Gochujang
• 1 tbsp Gochugaru
• 1/4 cup Soy sauce
• 5 cloves Garlic
• 1 tbsp Grated ginger
• 3 Scallions

Steps

1. Whisk the gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger with 1 cup of water into a sauce.
2. Toss the chicken pieces in the sauce in a heavy pot, add 2 more cups of water, and bring to a boil.
3. Add the potatoes, carrots, and onion; reduce to a simmer and cook 30 minutes, turning the chicken once.
4. Uncover and simmer 10 more minutes until the sauce reduces and clings to everything in a spicy glaze.
5. Scatter scallions over the top and serve with rice — the potatoes, having drunk up the sauce, may be the best part.
