Korean Spicy Fried Chicken recipe is sweet, spicy, and savory, perfect for any occasion either an appetizer or main dish. It’s super quick and easy to make and super delicious. It’ll get your finger-licking good!
Unlike the Napa Kimchi Recipe that takes eons of preparation, coupled with three 3 separate ingredients and timely procedures. I’m glad we’d come up with another one to counter longer cooking hours.
Gladly, the Korean Spicy Fried Chicken did not disappoint. We have less ingredients to choose from and is within our reach, cooking does not have to be too fancy! We believe cooking less is more! not complicated, simple, and yet it packs and wallops a flavor.
