Ingredients

2 lb. chicken thighs, boneless and skinless

2 to 3 TBSP hot bean paste

2 TBSP soy sauce

2 TBSP toasted sesame seeds, crushed

1 TBSP toasted sesame oil

1 TBSP sugar

1/4 cup green onion, finely chopped

4 large cloves of garlic, minced

1/4 tsp salt

1/8 tsp pepper

Directions

To toast sesame seeds:

Place them on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 7 to 10 minutes or until golden.

Chicken Recipe:

Score meat on both sides by making shallow diagonal cuts about 1 inch apart.

In a large mixing bowl stir together bean paste, soy sauce, sesame seeds, sesame oil, sugar, green onions, garlic, salt, and pepper. Pour into a large plastic bag; add chicken, seal bag, and marinate in the fridge for 4 to 24 hours, turning the bag occasionally.

Remove chicken, scraping off excess marinade. Reserve marinade.

Place chicken on the grill rack of an uncovered grill. Grill directly over medium coals for 15 minutes.

Turn chicken over and grill for 10 to 15 minutes more. Baste both sides with reserved marinade and grill for 5 minutes more, or until chicken is done.
