Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1Slice the chicken breast
    Hands using a white knife to thinly slice raw chicken breast on a plastic cutting board.

    Begin by slicing the raw chicken breast into thin, even pieces on a cutting board. Cutting them uniformly ensures they cook quickly and evenly in the air fryer.

    Tip: Partially freezing the chicken breast for about 20 minutes before slicing makes it much easier to cut into very thin, clean slices.
  2. 2Mince the garlic
    Hands holding a large white knife, mincing garlic cloves next to sliced chicken breast.

    Peel and mince the fresh garlic cloves on the cutting board. The minced garlic will provide a strong, aromatic base for our low-fat chicken marinade.

    Tip: Smash the garlic cloves with the flat side of your knife before mincing to easily remove the skins and release their fragrant oils.
  3. 3Season the chicken
    Pouring oil from a dark bottle over raw chicken breast and minced garlic in a patterned bowl.

    Transfer the sliced chicken to a bowl and add the minced garlic. Pour in a small amount of oil, then season generously with black pepper and garlic salt. Toss everything together until the chicken is well coated.

    Tip: Letting the chicken marinate for 10-15 minutes will help the flavors penetrate the meat before air frying.
  4. 4Load the air fryer
    Seasoned chicken breast slices arranged in an air fryer basket.

    Transfer the seasoned chicken breast pieces into an air fryer basket lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are spread out for even cooking.

    Tip: Lining the air fryer basket makes cleanup much easier.
  5. 5Pan-fry the beef slices
    Thin slices of raw beef searing in a hot non-stick pan on a black stovetop.

    While the chicken is cooking, heat a non-stick pan on the stovetop. Place the thin slices of raw beef directly into the pan and fry them until fully cooked and lightly browned on the edges.

    Tip: Since the beef slices are thin, they will cook very quickly. Keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking and keep them tender.
  6. 6Prepare the dipping sauce
    A bowl containing a mix of dark sauces with green onion pieces being stirred together.

    Combine Korean bibimbap sauce, grilled meat sauce, and sesame oil in a bowl, then stir in fresh chopped scallions.

    Tip: Stirring the sauce well allows the fragrance of the scallions to fully infuse.
