Gochujang Chicken Stir Fry with Veggies

Name: Gochujang Chicken Stir Fry with Veggies
Total time: PT1800.0S
Yield: 4
Ingredients: 1 pound Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thigh; 1 Carrot; 1 Leek; 1/2 Yellow Onion; 2 clove Garlic; 2 tablespoon Gochujang; 1 1/2 tablespoon Soy Sauce; 1 teaspoon Paprika; 1/2 tablespoon Sesame Oil; 1/2 tablespoon Vegetable Oil; to taste White Rice; to taste Toasted White Sesame Seeds

Gochujang is a sweet-spicy Korean chili paste. We think the sweet heat is perfect for a quick stir fry - and pairs great with the sweetness of carrots and onions. By using chicken thighs, this dish gets even more flavor, and using a cast iron lets us really turn up the heat and cook everything in a flash. Serve alone for a low carb or lighter option, or with some fluffy steamed rice for a full meal.
