Ingredients: 12 oz boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces; 3 tbsp doenjang (Korean fermented soybean paste); 1.5 cups chicken stock or water; 1 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced into ½-inch half-moons; 4 scallions, cut into 2-inch pieces; 3 garlic cloves, minced; 1 tbsp sesame oil; 1 tsp gochugaru (optional); 1.5 cups cooked short-grain rice; Sea salt and black pepper to taste

Tender chicken thighs braised in a deep, savory doenjang (Korean soybean paste) broth with zucchini, scallions, and a whisper of garlic, served over warm rice. The vegetables char slightly in the pan for smokiness, while the broth clings to every grain.
