Tips: If the sweet potatoes are cut too thickly, they take longer to cook than the chicken, so pieces around 1 cm are easier to handle.
Tips: Stir-fry the chicken first until the outside is cooked, then add the vegetables so the seasoning coats everything evenly.
Tips: When packing it, let the dakgalbi cool for about 5 minutes before adding it to the rice so the rice doesn’t get too soggy.
