Advice

Use high heat for the first sear, color equals flavor, and it keeps the chicken juicy.
Why it works 💡
Gochujang brings deep fermented heat, honey balances it, and a quick covered steam softens cabbage fast, then uncovered reduction makes the sauce glossy and clingy.
Twist 🌶️
Swap half the cabbage for 250 g sweet potato wedges (2 cups / 8.8 oz) and simmer covered 8 minutes, then uncover to reduce until sticky.
