I Tried KOREAN POPCORN CHICKEN and I can never go back!

✨Recipe from My Korean Kitchen:
Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
• 1 lb boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 1 tbsp rice wine (mirin)
• 2 tsp ginger powder
• ½ tsp fine sea salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• 1 cup cornstarch
• Cooking oil for frying
• 2 tbsp finely chopped green onion (for garnish)
1 tsp sesame seeds (for garnish)
For the Sauce:
• 5 tbsp ketchup
• 1 ½ tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste)
• 2 tbsp honey
• 2 tbsp dark brown sugar
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tsp sesame oil
• ½ tsp minced garlic

Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces with rice wine, ginger powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly, then cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
2. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep saucepan or wok over medium-high heat (aim for 350°F/175°C). While the oil heats, coat each piece of marinated chicken in cornstarch, ensuring an even layer. Fry the chicken in batches for 2–3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on a paper towel.
3. In a skillet over medium heat, combine all sauce ingredients. Stir continuously for 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
4. Add the fried chicken to the sauce and toss quickly to coat. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately and enjoy! 😊

Yeah the corn starch is seriously good, including as a wet batter.

Mess free tip!! I love coating these in a bag 😅 saves soooo much time and cleanup (I’m also like this hahahah)

[Shlatty-ss]

That looks so delicious! As a Korean, I'm so happy you did it! Lots of love

I don’t know if anyone else’s school serves those popcorn chicken bowl things as a school lunch.. this may sound weird but those things are so good😭🤚 it’s not really the same as the video though, like mashed potatoes, gravy, corn, and crispy chicken. chefs kiss in my book

[IanPlayzzOfficiel]

“Which I cleaned 😇” so relatable for whatever reason…

[dobrovolectoni]

Remy please make potica. It's a traditional Slovenian dessert made of walnuts and I think you will love it 😊

[CutieKittenGaming]

I can def confirm Korean cuisine is one of the most things I crave without even trying it before lol!!😭🔥

I recommend to bread the chicken with bread crumbs! It turns out more crunchy at least for me because my mom hates frying so we put them in the air fryer

[LexieisMybrain]

You should try making more Korean foods!

[Rachelmakeseditsxx]

This is why I clean after I’m sure I won’t make anymore messes!😂😂

[kholil_]

you should make dishes from all over the country😙

[dhsgsbsn]

I've actually used bread crumbs a few times to make fried chicken and I'm not sorry 😂 it gives it like a chicken tenders vibe but it is pretty messy though

[HeyBrett]

Tip: place on the cornstarch, don’t drop it😂
