I was inspired to create this bulgogi pizza recipe when my hubby Matthew and I were devouring a giant platter of Korean Fried Chicken Wings in LA’s K-town. The Korean fried chicken wing glaze is the perfect balance of sweet-hot thanks to the gochujang paste (Korean fermented red pepper paste) and honey.I just couldn’t resist trying it as my bulgogi pizza recipe sauce base for my free spirited take on Korean style pizza.I marinated the beef in classic bulgogi ingredients, pan-fried it and then topped on sauced flat bread with mozarella cheese, kim chee and scallions. I think you’re going to love it! You can find gochujang at Asian markets or try this garlicky version of gochujang in the gourmet section of World Market.
