Directions
- 1Prepare the spicy paste by combining hot pepper flakes, hot pepper paste (gochujang), soy sauce, cooking oil, ground black pepper, rice syrup, minced garlic, and minced ginger.
- 2Chop green onions for garnish later.
- 3Prepare mozzarella cheese by shredding or dicing it.
- 4Mix the prepared paste until thick.
- 5Trim any yellow fat from the chicken breast and dice it into one-inch cubes.
