Crispy Fried Chicken Wings with Gochujang Sauce
Ingredients:
- 14 chicken wings (cut into halves)
- For Coating (Part A):
- 1 packet seasoning flour (such as Sajiku)
- 4 cloves garlic, finely minced or grated
- 1 teaspoon curry powder (optional)
- 4 tablespoons tapioca flour
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or substitute with salt)
- 1 teaspoon ground pepper
- For Coating (Part B):
- 1 packet seasoning flour (such as Sajiku)
- 150 grams rice flour
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
- Optional: dried oregano
- For Gochujang Sauce (Part C):
- 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean red chili paste)
- 1 tablespoon tomato sauce
- Hot water, as needed
- Mayonnaise, for garnish
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Chicken:
- Rinse the chicken wings thoroughly and drain well to remove excess water.
-
Coat with Part A Mixture:
- In a bowl, combine the seasoning flour (Part A), minced garlic, curry powder (if using), tapioca flour, egg, soy sauce (or salt), and ground pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Add the chicken wings to the mixture, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator overnight.
-
Prepare Part B Coating:
- The next day, remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature.
- In another bowl, mix together the seasoning flour (Part B), rice flour, all-purpose flour, and dried oregano (if using).
-
Coat the Chicken:
- Roll each chicken wing in the Part B coating mixture, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Gently press the coating onto the chicken to ensure it adheres well.
-
Fry the Chicken:
- Heat a generous amount of oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.
- Carefully place the coated chicken wings into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
- Fry the wings until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
-
Make Gochujang Sauce (Part C):
- While the chicken is frying, prepare the gochujang sauce by mixing together gochujang, tomato sauce, and enough hot water to achieve a pourable consistency.
-
Coat with Gochujang Sauce:
- Once the chicken wings are cooked and crispy, remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels briefly.
- While still hot, toss the fried chicken wings in the prepared gochujang sauce until evenly coated.
-
Serve:
- Arrange the gochujang-coated chicken wings on a serving platter.
- Garnish with a drizzle of mayonnaise for extra richness and serve immediately.
