  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together oil, kimchi juice, salt, chili paste, and vinegar to taste.

  • Drain beans, pat dry, and put in a large bowl along with chopped kimchi, chicken, tomatoes, and cilantro. Gently toss with enough dressing to coat. Serve any remaining dressing on the side.

  • *Find kimchi with refrigerated foods at well-stocked grocery stores. Find gochujang at Asian markets and online.
