  • Keep the technique and XP even when the recipe changes

Can you make this dairy-free and a little less spicy?

Done. I swapped the butter for toasted sesame oil and halved the gochugaru. This version still trains your sauce-making, and I kept the caramelization step so you keep the technique.

Great — can I cook it in 30 minutes instead?

Yes. I combined the marinade and glaze steps and switched to thigh fillets so it comes together in 28 minutes.
