Ingredients

5 Boneless Chicken Thigh
1.5 tbsp Gochugaru
2.5 tbsp minced garlic
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp gochujang
2 tbsp Soy Sauce
1 tbsp Sweetener of Your Choice I used honey
Neutral oil for frying
1 onion sliced
150 g mixed mushrooms sliced
2 packs noodles
1/2 - 1 cup shredded cheese

Instructions

Start by marinating the chicken thighs with Korean red chili flakes, lots of garlic, black pepper, Korean red chili paste, soy sauce, and any sweetener you love. Massage everything in really well.
In a separate pot of boiling water, cook the noodles until loosened and slightly undercooked. Set aside.
Then pan fry the chicken for around 2-3 minutes on each side. You want that beautiful brown exterior while keeping the inside super juicy.
Once the chicken is around 70% cooked, cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Push the chicken bites to the side of the pan, and add in sliced onions. Toss in any veggie you have on hand. Today, I'm adding in lots of mushrooms.
Add in cooked noodles and mix everything together so it soaks up all that spicy savory goodness.
Finish off with a generous handful of shredded cheese. Let it melt.
