1. Prepare the sauce (1 minute)

In a small bowl, mix together:

Gochujang

Honey

Soy sauce
Stir until smooth. This will coat the chicken and caramelize beautifully.

2. Season the chicken (1–2 minutes)

Add the cubed chicken to the sauce and toss until every piece is evenly coated.

3. Cook the chicken (6–8 minutes)

Heat a pan over medium-high heat.

Add a tiny bit of oil (optional).

Cook the chicken for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until:

The sauce thickens and becomes glossy

The chicken edges caramelize

The inside is fully cooked

4. Build your bowl (1–2 minutes)

Place the warm cooked rice into a bowl.

Add the sliced cucumbers to one side for a refreshing crunch.

Top with the caramelized chicken.

5. Garnish and serve

Sprinkle with sesame seeds or chopped green onions if desired.

Serve immediately while hot.
