For best results, ensure the oil temperature remains consistent for optimal crispiness. Adjust the amount of gochujang to suit your spice preference. Marinating the chicken longer can enhance the flavor. Serve immediately for maximum crispiness.

01 Step
Recipe View Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with rice wine vinegar, minced garlic, minced ginger, salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Ensure the chicken is well-coated. Allow to marinate for at least 20-30 minutes. (Time: 20-30 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View Prepare the Sweet and Spicy Sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, whisk together honey, cider vinegar, brown sugar, gochujang, soy sauce, minced garlic, minced ginger, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring continuously. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and set aside. (Time: 7-8 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View First Fry: Heat canola oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). While the oil heats, place cornstarch in a separate bowl. Toss the marinated chicken in cornstarch, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Working in batches, carefully add the chicken to the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry for approximately 2 minutes per side, until lightly golden brown. (Time: 4 minutes per batch)
04 Step
Recipe View Second Fry for Extra Crispy Texture: Reheat the oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the chicken again for about 40 seconds per batch, until it reaches a deep golden-brown color and is extra crispy. Remove the chicken and transfer it directly into the pot of prepared sauce. (Time: 1 minute per batch)
05 Step
Recipe View Combine and Heat: Gently heat the sauced chicken over medium-low heat for about 3 minutes, stirring to ensure each piece is evenly coated and warmed through. (Time: 3 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View Garnish and Serve: Transfer the Sweet Korean Crispy Chicken to a serving dish. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts, if desired, for added flavor and texture. Serve immediately and enjoy!
