Korean Bibimbap recipe | Chicken Bibimbap recipe (2024)

Korean bibimbap recipe – is a mixture of rice with meat and varied sauteed vegetable, all drizzled with gochuzang based bibimbap sauce, topped with runny egg and sesame seeds. In one word it is all goodness in one bowl.

This Korean bibimbap is simple to make and above that it’s all cooked up in one pan. Isn’t it amazing ?? If you are asian food lover like me, this recipe is for you.

I have not made it in authentic Korean style because I don’t consume beef. So given a little tweak to recipe and made it with chicken. And believe me chicken bibimbap is darn delicious. One of the pretty thing of this recipe is its quite adjustable according to dietary restrictions. You may add any vegetable or exclude meat, use mushrooms.

The most desirable ingredient in thisKorean bibimbap recipe is the sauce. Its Gochugang sauce, I bought it from amazon. But once again you may replace it with any chilli sauce you have in your kitchen. But I highly recommendGochugang sauce because it gives the feel of authenticity and it has amazing flavour. I remember when I got my parcel. I opened it immediately out of my immense curiosity. And the SMELL was sensory garlicky chilli umami aroma. I just loved it. I am quite good at handling heat in my food so I loaded my bowl with the sauce but please be aware its hot and add it it as per your preference.

The runny egg is just like cherry on the cake. Unlike the authenticKorean bibimbap recipe in which raw eggs and meat is used, I cooked my egg just till the yolk formed a layer but still runny inside.
