Dakgalbi Kimchi Chicken Rice

At Chef Bong Le Jo's Lower East Side restaurant, 8282, this is the dish that brings the whole team together after long nights of service. Tender chicken in Chef's signature dakgalbi sauce is stir-fried with savory cooked kimchi, then folded into fluffy white rice and topped with shredded mozzarella. It’s smoky, tangy, with just a touch of sweet.
