Gochujang sauce:
2 tablespoons gochujang
2 tablespoons gochugaru, plus more for serving
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
¼ cup water
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
Chickpeas and greens:
2 teaspoons neutral oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 yellow onion, peeled, halved, and thinly sliced into half-moons
4 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2 (15-ounce) cans chickpeas, drained
2 teaspoons minced ginger
1½ cups water
8 ounces baby bok choy, roughly chopped; or use 4 ounces baby spinach
Salt to taste
For serving:
Steamed jasmine rice
Sesame seeds
Prepare the sauce:
Combine 2 tablespoons gochujang, 2 tablespoons gochugaru, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, ¼ cup water, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt in a glass mixing bowl and whisk until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Sauté the onion and garlic:
Heat 2 teaspoons neutral oil and 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a wide pot over medium heat. Once hot, add the sliced onion and sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until it begins to soften. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Simmer the chickpeas:
Add the drained chickpeas, minced ginger, the prepared gochujang sauce, and 1½ cups water. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 15 to 30 minutes. Taste and season with salt if needed.
Cook the greens:
Add the chopped baby bok choy to the pot and simmer for 5 minutes until bright green and just wilted. Taste and season once more before turning off the heat.
To serve:
Ladle the chickpeas and greens over cooked rice and finish with sesame seeds and a pinch of gochugaru if desired. Enjoy!
The whole process!

I just had to throw out a lot of ground turkey today cuz it went bad... I think I'll make something like this for dinner.

Canned chickpeas? They are rather nasty. You need to try fresh pressure cooked peas. An hour from start to finish. Easy peasy. There is no going back. I live on them.

Gochujang is such a fantastic ingredient.

T&T this may sound naive but is this recipe vegan?
triedandtruerecipes

Hey @op, chickpea question for you: when I open a can there seems to be a husk on the chickpeas, do you remove all the husks?
triedandtruerecipes
Hell no lol some people do for extra creamy hummus but I’d rather rip my eyes out. I just eat them!
homoerection
Oh thank god! lol You just did another chickpea recipe I can’t wait to try. Thanks for the info!

I was just thinking I needed more gochugaru recipes and I have tons of gochujang. And I’ve got a couple cans of chickpeas not doing anything. This is exactly what I was looking for!

Always save the aquafaba from the canned chickpeas. It's liquid gold. You can make so many things from it, including whipped cream

I read this as sarcasm, but now I'm not so sure. I will have to google what gochugaru even is.
RadiDaddy
Definitely not sarcasm. I’ve favorited and screenshot the recipe and am excited to give it a try. That first pic of the plated dish looks amazing.
