    Instructions

    1. 1

      Thinly slice 600 grams of boneless, skinless chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and set aside in a medium bowl.

    2. 2

      Finely mince the tender part of 2 stalks of fresh lemongrass, 3 cloves of garlic, and 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger, then combine them in a small bowl to form an aromatic paste.

    3. 3

      In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of gochujang, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of honey, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to create the stir-fry sauce.

    4. 4

      Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat, then add the prepared lemongrass-garlic-ginger paste and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

    5. 5

      Add the sliced chicken thighs to the wok and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned on all sides.

    6. 6

      Incorporate 1 medium sliced yellow onion, 1 medium sliced red bell pepper, and 1 large julienned carrot into the wok, stir-frying for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

    7. 7

      Pour the whisked stir-fry sauce into the wok, tossing continuously for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and evenly coats all the ingredients.

    8. 8

      Garnish the dish with 3 sliced scallions and 1 teaspoon of toasted sesame seeds before serving immediately with steamed rice.
