One-Pot Gochujang Chicken Rice
One-pot gochujang chicken rice is a spicy, savory dinner where the stock seasons everything while the rice and chicken cook together.
Why This Recipe Works
Gochujang, soy, and sesame oil create a bold, salty broth that infuses the rice. Cooking the chicken directly in the pot keeps it juicy and adds depth.
Ingredients Overview
Basmati rice keeps the texture light, while garlic and ginger add aroma. Spring onions and sesame seeds finish the bowls with freshness and crunch.
How to Make It
Whisk the stock and seasonings, simmer until most liquid is absorbed, then cook low and slow so the rice steams fully. Finish with sliced chicken and toppings.
Tips and Storage
Let the pot rest off heat for 5 minutes before serving. Leftovers keep well for up to 3 days.

Chef's Tips
Use 1 tbsp gochujang for a milder bowl and adjust soy after cooking.
Keep the lid on to let the rice steam properly.
Let the chicken rest before slicing for juicier pieces.
