KOREAN FRIED CHICKEN SAUCE



Korean Fried Chicken Sauce image

This is my take on the classic Korean fried chicken sauce. I like to add lots of green onion and garlic, and not cook this quite as long. The result is a sauce with those ingredients a little more in the flavor profile's forefront. Try to find Korean chili flakes and/or paste if you can. I've used them before and the flavor is great (and obviously more authentic), but if you can't, any hot chili flakes or paste will work.

Provided by carvalhohm

Number Of Ingredients 12

Sweet Garlic Sauce:
2 Tbs. Finely chopped garlic
3 Tbs. soy sauce
3 Tbs. Sugar
1/3 cup Mirin
Fried Wings:
6 Full chicken wings, removed wingtips, split at joint
3/4 cup and 3 Tbs. Tempura Powder
Salt and pepper to taste
3/4 cup cold water
Frying oil
Black and white sesame seeds for garnish

Steps:

  • In a small sauce pan, add all ingredients for sweet garlic sauce. Over low heat, slow cook sauce while prep and fry chicken wings. Meanwhile dust chicken wings evenly with 3 Tbs. tempura powder in a large mixing bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Another large mixing bowl, combine ¾ cup tempura powder and ¾ cup cold water with a whisk. Heat frying oil in a large, thick bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium high heat (about 2 to 3 inches high from bottom of pot); reach 335 to 350 degrees. Coat dusted chicken wings with tempura batter and carefully drop into hot frying oil. Working in 2 batches, deep fry wings for 10 to 15 minutes or until they are fully cooked. Remove from oil and drain on a cooling rack or paper towels. Repeat with rest of chicken wings. Remove sauce from heat and it shouldn't reduced much. Taste if it's not too salty for your taste. If it is salty, add a bit of water and mix. In a large mixing bowl, toss fried chicken wings evenly with sauce. Transfer wings to a serving plate, drizzle with leftover sauce in mixing bowl over chicken wings. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds if you'd like to.

Tips:

  • When making the chicken, use a combination of dark and white meat for the best flavor and texture.
  • Make sure to double-coat the chicken in the flour mixture to ensure a crispy outer layer.
  • Fry the chicken in hot oil until it is golden brown and cooked through.
  • For the sauce, use a combination of sweet and savory ingredients to create a balanced flavor.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the chicken with the sauce immediately, or store the sauce separately and reheat it before serving.
