How to make K-Style Peppers Chicken
- Step 1
In a blender or food processor, combine Gochujang, soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using). Blend until smooth to make the K-Style sauce.

- Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned, about 5-6 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Step 4
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil if needed, then sauté the sliced onions and bell peppers until tender, about 5 minutes.
- Step 5
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Step 6
Add the marinated chicken back into the skillet and stir to coat with the pepper mixture.
- Step 7
Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, covered, for 10-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the peppers are tender.
- Step 8
Garnish with chopped crispy garlic (if using) and serve hot over rice or noodles.
