Instructions
 

Gochujang Slaw

  • Mix all ingredients together and let sit for at least and hour. You can mix the paste, sugar and rice wine vinegar together to help it dissolve.
    2 cups broccoli slaw or some kind of slaw mix, 1/4 cup finely diced onion, 1/4 cup finely diced red pepper, 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar, 1-2 tsp Gochujang paste, 1 tsp fresh ginger, 1 whole garlic clove chopped, 1-2 tsp sugar-I used 1 tsp Truvia brown sugar, 1 tsp white pepper

Sriracha/Mayo

  • Mix together and set aside, but you can add this to slaw if you like.
    1 part Sriracha, 1 part mayo

Gochujang Ground chicken Burger

  • Mix all ingredients together and set aside for 15 minutes to overnight.
    1 lb ground chicken or turkey, 2 tsp chili crisp, 1-2 tsp Gochujang paste, 1 whole garlic clove, 1 tsp fresh ginger, 1 fresh egg, 1 cup bread crumbs, I used whole wheat panko
  • Form into 6 oz patties and cook on med/high for color and then fully cook over medium heat. You can add some water half way to steam the burgers if you like. For pita, I formed a log instead and seared it on 4 sides.
  • Use the pan to break apart and cook bok choy leaves if you like. I just used them to color, but you can yours spinach or whatever you like.
    2 bunches bok choy spears
  • Assemble buns, sriracha/mayo, burger, bok choy leaves and slaw on a bun or in pita or naan.
    4 whole Brioche rolls or pita, naan or any bread.
