Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for deeper flavour.
-
Arrange the marinated chicken thighs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or in a baking dish.

Drain any excess liquid, and aside whilst making the curry sauce.

Add all the spices and Gochujang paste (if using) and fry for a few minutes to release the flavour. Do not burn so keep on a low or medium heat.
