Tips: Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces, since larger pieces take longer to cook.
Tips: Cabbage releases water, so keep the heat at medium rather than starting over high heat to help the sauce coat everything evenly.
Tips: When packing it, let the stir-fried Dakgalbi cool for about 5 minutes before adding it with the rice so the rice stays less soggy.
