Got some gochujang (Korean pepper paste), Coke, sesame oil, soy sauce and a clove of garlic?
Well dump some on a bunch of chicken pieces (dark meat preferred), mix well, marinate for at least an hour, and then bake at 350 for about half an hour. Measurements? Don't have any. Just a little here and a little there until I know it's right, though I usually use more gochujang 'cause I like it spicy!
I ad-libbed this dish back in college with the crap that my roommate and I had in the fridge. It's the easiest dish to make and yields some tender and tasty chicken; the leftovers are even better!
Eat with steamed rice and kimchee--mm-mmm!
Sounds delicious! And this is coming from someone who's not a big fan of kim chee. Ad-lib, Mad-lib college chicken dishes are the best! YUM!
ReplyDeleteSometimes the best dishes are ad-libbed, this sounds great - I might even try it! I love the use of coke! My fav ad-lib is making a tamago roll with shoyu, furikake, and green onions....
ReplyDeleteBack in college, we used to make all of our marinades w/ coke (and beer) b/c we never had sugar. but you'd be surprised how good bbq steaks come out b/c of coke. Pam, like emeril says, i'm contacting apple about getting smellavision on my monitor.
ReplyDeleteThis thing with Coke and beer is intriguing. I'll have to try it soon...heard from a friend he made the best steak by marinating in beer.
ReplyDeleteBeer in homemade chili is yum too! Now that it's getting cold again, I may make a pot. :)
ReplyDeleteSay for 4-5 steaks in a pot. Use a fork and stab holes all over the meat. We'd then dump 2 cans of cheap beer, soy sauce, 1-2 cups of coke, water, garlic, garlic powder, crushed red pepper and green onions. The carbonation from the coke also serves as a tenderizer. (I had heard that some ppl marinate their korean bbq with sprite/7-up.) Let it marinade for atleast 2 hours and as you cook the steak, keep basting the steak with the marinade.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds pretty darn good!
ReplyDeleteHey Everyone,
ReplyDeleteThere's so much talk about all this great sounding food made w/ coke & beer, we should all have an Ad-Lib with Coke or Beer COOKOFF! Whatdya say?
Sounds great, hiccup! Except, hiccup, I might not make it...hiccup, to the finish line....Actually, it sounds like fun, but can I just do beer braised Brats???
