Dak Bulgogi

When you think of Bulgogi we immediately think of beef sizzling away on the grill. But here’s a great recipe for a week night dinner that is so easy, Dak Bulgogi. Dak is chicken in Korean. I found this great idea from Hyosun Ro a Korean American mom who blogs about home style Korean cooking. Her site is Korean Bapsang.com. I also follow her on Facebook to get her daily postings and this is where I found Dak Bulgogi! You marinate boneless skinless thighs in the morning and either saute the Dak or throw them on the grill. Here’s the

1# Boneless skinless thighs

3T soy sauce

1T brown sugar

1T lemon juice

1T honey

1Tmirin

1T rice wine

1T grated garlic

1Tgrated ginger

1T sesame oil

Fresh ground pepper

Marinate at least one hour. Saute or grill till done. As you’re cooking keep splashing on some of the marinade. The chicken will get beautifully glazed.

While chicken marinates cook a pot of rice, clean a head of Red Leaf lettuce and separate into leaves.

Prepare the sauces.
