Swaps and substitutions
For a vegetarian version, swap the chicken thighs for firm tofu or seared mushrooms, using the same sauce and rice. If you need it sesame-free or soy-light, replace the sesame oil with a neutral oil and choose a kimchi sauce that fits your diet.
What to serve with it
Serve with extra steamed greens like bok choy or broccoli to balance the spicy sauce, plus a simple cucumber salad for crunch and freshness. A light, crisp lager or iced green tea also works well with the savory, tangy flavors.
