This Chicken Bibimbap is flavor-packed and makes a perfect lunch or dinner to share with a friend. You’ll start by tossing chicken in an easy garlic-soy marinade that will ensure your chicken is crisp and caramelized when you cook it. Then, you’ll keep building the dish with cooked carrots, spinach, and shiitake mushrooms. Fry up a couple of eggs and you’re ready to serve a delicious meal.

How to Make It

1. Step
In a shallow dish, combine 2 cloves of garlic, the ginger, 2 thinly sliced scallions, the soy sauce, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, the mirin, and brown sugar, and whisk to combine.
2. Step
Add the chicken and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
3. Step
Bring a large pot of water to boil over high heat and season generously with salt. Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl. Blanch the spinach in the boiling water for 30 seconds, then transfer to the ice bath to shock, then drain. Transfer to a small bowl and season with 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, salt, and pepper.
4. Step
In a medium skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of sesame oil over medium heat. Add the carrots and cook until softened, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside. Season with salt.
5. Step
In the same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the remaining clove of garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 2 minutes. Season with salt, then remove from the pan and set aside.
6. Step
In the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and sauté, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, about 5 minutes.
7. Step
Heat a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Melt the butter in the pan. Once the foaming subsides, crack the eggs into the pan and cook until the whites are firm and golden brown around the edges and the yolks are still runny, or to your desired doneness.
8. Step
To assemble the bibimbap bowls, top the rice with the chicken, kimchi, sliced scallions, carrots, spinach, mushrooms, cucumbers, and fried eggs.
9. Step
Enjoy!
