Steps

Translated from the Korean original. Amounts are as in the original recipe.

  1. Cut the chicken and eggplant into bite-size pieces.
  2. Marinate the chicken in minced scallion, minced garlic, cooking rice wine, sesame oil, and oligosaccharide syrup.
  3. Mix the plum extract, soy sauce, vinegar, minced garlic, mirin, and water to make a sauce.
  4. Bake the eggplant and chicken in the oven.
  5. Toss the baked chicken and eggplant with the plum sauce.
  6. Stir-fry the sauce-coated chicken and eggplant in a pan and serve.
💡 TipInstead of braising in soy sauce, a small amount of soy sauce-based sauce is used to lightly stir-fry for flavor.
