KOREAN SPICY CHICKEN STEW (DAKDORI TANG)



Korean Spicy Chicken Stew (Dakdori Tang) image

This recipe, from the Brooklyn chef Sohui Kim, is an ideal one-pot weeknight meal, as everything - chicken included - is thrown into the pot. Soy sauce, fiery gochugaru (Korean dried red-pepper flakes), fish sauce and radish kimchi give this stew a deeply funky, satisfying flavor. During the summer, Ms. Kim grills a few of the chicken pieces (see note) and tosses them into the sauce to braise with the sauce. The kimchi called for here is not cabbage kimchi, it is kkakdugi, sometimes listed as cubed radish kimchi or cubed moo radish kimchi, available at Korean grocery stores.

DAKDORITANG (KOREAN SPICY CHICKEN STEW)



Dakdoritang (Korean Spicy Chicken Stew) image

'Dakdoritang' is a chicken dish that's cooked in a spicy red sauce along with vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and onions. It's also called 'dakbokkeumtang' or 'dakmaeuntang.' It's usually made by cutting up a whole chicken into small pieces, but I use a combination of chicken thighs and wings. The result is succulent pieces of chicken packed with spicy and savory flavors!
