For the salad topper, combine the cucumbers, radishes and scallions in a bowl, whisk up dressing and toss with salad. Add sesame seeds just before serving.
For the tray bake, preheat oven to 425°F.
Whisk up gochujang, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, light brown sugar, oil, ginger, and garlic in a large bowl.
Place chicken, zucchini and onions into a mixing bowl, season with a little salt and generous black pepper and toss to combine.
