1 tablespoon tomato paste

1 tablespoon Gochujang sauce (gluten free, if needed)

1 tablespoon honey

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

2 garlic cloves, minced

9 x 13 inch baking dish

Pastry brush (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. Combine the tomato paste, Gochujang sauce, honey, rice vinegar and garlic in a small saucepan. Mix well.
  3. Heat over low heat for 3 minutes, stirring so edges do not burn.
  4. Add the chicken, yellow squash, bell pepper, eggplant and onion to the baking dish.
  5. Pour the sauce into the dish. Coat all the ingredients.
  6. Marinate for 30 minutes.
  7. Bake for 40 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
  8. Serve with cilantro garnish and corn on the cob or other starch.

Cooking Tip

You can use a pastry brush to swab on the marinade. It makes it easier to ensure all the ingredients are saturated. This recipe also works well if the ingredients are grilled, though veggies would need to be left in larger chunks and cooking time adjusted.
