You guys, help! I’m addicted to this Korean BBQ sauce. I can’t stop thinking of ways to devour it. I’m in this one deep. This sauce is sticky, sweet, savory and it’s basically a party in your mouth that even your head can’t help but nod along to! Korean bbq sauce has me enjoying all sorts of goodies. It’s even got me posting on a Thursday, which like, never happens. I couldn’t keep this one from you guys! I love this sauce because it’s easy t0 cook up a batch and it keeps well in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Which is absolutely perfect for those nights when I can’t think of what to season my salmon with and I’m already a half hour late to get dinner out. This Korean bbq sauce is also perfect for tossing in a quick stir fry with some chicken and veggies. Let’s talk about ways to use this sauce:
brush onto salmon filets a few minutes before they’re done baking toss with chicken and vegetables use it to coat chicken wings (follow these instructions, replace the sauce with this Korean bbq sauce) in the crockpot with a 1 1/2 pounds of chicken + 2 cups of this sauce (2 ingredients don’t cha just love it) brush onto grilled chicken brush onto grilled shrimp skewers replace it with the dressing in this salad dipping sauce for chicken nuggets dipping sauce for shrimp poppers or coconut shrimp on a Korean bbq chicken pizza (here’s the recipe)
You probably have most of these ingredients on hand. We’re talking a little soy sauce, a few cloves of garlic, a nub of ginger, a cup of brown sugar, a pinch of red pepper flakes, a splash of rice vinegar, and a couple of tablespoons of sesame oil. A slurry of cornstarch and water helps thicken this all up nicely. That’s it! There are probably 1,284 different ways to use this sauce, and I plan on enjoying each one of them. I highly encourage you to do the same!
