I made this recipe right after coming back from Korea, inspired by the movie The Solitary Gourmet.
It turned out just as delicious as real pork Bossam! Even though I used lean chicken thighs, the meat wasn’t dry or tough at all! It was tender, juicy, and full of flavour.

Notes
- You can use the leftover broth to make a simple noodle soup with the chicken meat. I only added 5g of sugar to the broth and paired it with tofu noodles, bok choy, bean sprouts, and chicken meat. (446 kcal — P58 C42 F8)
