Korean Fried Chicken – My Favorite

I am partial to fried chicken, all kinds of fried chicken. There is nothing not to love about chicken coated in a crispy, crunchy batter and deep-fried to golden perfection. Every bite is bursting with the natural and juicy flavor of chicken! While I love American-style fried chicken, my true love is Asian fried chicken such as this spicy, savory, and absolutely finger-lickin’ good crispy Korean style fried chicken doused in the classic Korean red pepper paste “gochujang.”

Authentic Korean Fried Chicken Recipe

To make sure that my recipe is spot on, I researched and tried so many of them at Korean restaurants. I then developed the best recipe to share with you! Trust me, they are exactly like the ones you would get at the restaurants.

Gochujang

Gochujang is Korean red pepper paste. It’s the most important ingredient in Korean recipes. It’s used as a sauce and marinade in many Korean food and lends the iconic red color to many dishes. You can’t make authentic Korean fried chicken without gochujang. You can buy gochujang from Korean or Asian supermarkets. You can also find them at the international aisle of many supermarkets.
