Korean Sweet Chilli Chicken (Yangyum Chicken, 양념치킨)

Korean Fried Chicken is very crispy and it is the crispiness that defines its uniqueness as Korean Fried Chicken. Crispy Chicken is then coated with Sweet Chilli Sauce, which is made with Gochujang.

The Spicy and Sweet flavour of the sauce is a perfect combination with this fried chicken.

Ingredients

Chicken Batter

1 kg Chicken wings
Vegetable Oil
1 tsp sea salt
½ tsp ground black pepper
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp garlic powder
100 g corn starch

Korean sweet chilli sauce

3 cloves garlic (minced), 1 tsp gochujang, 2 tsp ketchup,2 tsp sugar

Instructions

In a deep pot over medium-high heat, heat 4 to 6 cups vegetable oil to 180°C
In a small bowl, combine salt, pepper, baking powder,and garlic powder.
Pat wings dry with paper towels, then rub with grated ginger and season with salt mixture.
In a large bowl, toss wings with corn starch and squeeze to compress coating onto each wing.
Carefully add wings to oil and fry until skin is just lightly crisped and golden, occasionally flipping with tongs, about 10 to 15minutes.
Remove wings from oil and set aside on prepared plate. Let rest briefly.
Heat frying oil to 180°C. Return wings to pot and fry again until deeply golden and skin is crisp and crunchy, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove wings from oil and place in a large mixing bowl.
Make sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, mix garlic, gochujang, ketchup, sugar and cook until bubbling. Stir until bubbling and slightly thickened.
Pour sauce over wings and toss until evenly coated. Add in peanuts and toss to combine (This is optional)
Garnish with sesame seeds before serving
If you prefer boneless chicken, you can use chicken thighs to create boneless Korean Fried Chicken.

Absolutely wonderful Kimchi making kit. Loved the way everything was presented in individual pots. Each item labelled.
Easy to follow recipe card... results are lovely.

So glad to have come across Gourmet Korea, especially during lockdown when home cooking was necessary almost every day and a change in the routine was so welcomed. Shipping was fast and the items were very well packed and clearly labeled. The home KBBQ meal kits are convenient and easy - everything is included (except the rice) so you don't even need to get your own ssamjang. The meats come fully marinaded, you just need to spend 10 mins cooking it up in a pan if you haven't got a Korean-style grill. Portion size is generous enough to leave two adults with decent appetites feeling fully satisfied. Taste-wise it's authentic & delicious and not "fusion" nor altered/watered down for foreign tongues (speaking as someone who's previously lived in Seoul for 9 years and has eaten plenty of all the delicious Korean things). We tried all 5 flavours of the bbq kits available and our favourites were the LA galbi and the jeyook bokkeum (spicy pork, not that spicy though!). We've since reordered a large enough quantity to keep some in the freezer for days when we want a little taste of Korea again and will definitely reorder when our stash is gone!

I bought some Kim Chee and other food for my parent's birthday. I called the company beforehand with a couple of delivery questions. They were very helpful. I'd definitely buy from them again.

Food was amazing! There was a slight hiccup with my order but it was quickly rectified and the team gave us some additional stuff to compensate which was not necessary but very much appreciated.

The food box arrived on time and on the confirmed date. I ordered two of the meal kits which were as described and packed in a temperature controlled box. They meal kits came with a recipe card with clear cooking instructions. Also, I bought some other non perishable products that were well packed and with good use by dates.
