Korean Fried Chicken — 양념치킨
Cuisine: Korean · Origin: Korea
Korean fried chicken, known as yangnyeom chicken, is a beloved street food and casual dining staple characterized by its ultra-crispy exterior and tender, juicy meat. The signature preparation involves double-frying the chicken pieces to achieve maximum crispness, then coating them in a glossy, spiced sauce typically made with gochujang (red chili paste), garlic, soy sauce, and sugar. Unlike Western fried chicken, Korean versions are often boneless or cut into bite-sized pieces for easy sharing. The dish is frequently served with pickled radish and paired with beer in the popular 'chimaek' combination. Regional variations include honey butter chicken, soy garlic chicken, and spicy varieties. Since gaining international recognition through Korean popular culture, yangnyeom chicken has become a global phenomenon, with dedicated restaurants opening across major cities worldwide. It remains a quintessential Korean comfort food enjoyed at casual eateries, restaurants, and as takeout.
Standard serving: ~450 kcal (6 pieces (300g), estimate)
