Sweet and Spicy Korean Fried Chicken Now, let’s gather our ingredients to get this deliciousness cooking:

Ingredients:

2 pounds chicken wings
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Oil for frying
¼ cup gochujang (Korean chili paste)
¼ cup honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
Sesame seeds for garnish
Green onions, chopped for garnish

Instructions:

First things first, marinate those chicken wings! In a large bowl, mix the buttermilk with some salt and pepper, then toss those wings in there. Cover and let them chill in the fridge for about 1-2 hours. Trust me, the longer, the better!
When you’re ready to fry, heat that oil in a deep fryer or a heavy pot to about 350°F (175°C). While that’s heating up, get another bowl and combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Take those marinated wings out and coat them in the flour mixture. Make sure every inch is covered for that crispy goodness!
Fry the wings in batches until they are golden brown and cooked through, around 10-12 minutes. Remove them and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to soak up the excess oil.
Now, let’s make that sauce! In a small saucepan, combine the gochujang, honey, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Heat it on low until it’s all mixed and bubbling.
Once your wings are crispy, toss them in that sweet and spicy sauce until they’re adequately coated.
Serve these bad boys hot, garnished with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Trust me, they won’t last long!

And there you have it! Sweet and spicy Korean Fried Chicken that’s perfect for any occasion. Enjoy it with your favorite sides, and get ready for everyone to ask for seconds!
