Chicken Gangjeong



Chicken dakgangjeong, known locally as dakgangjeong, is a crispy double-fried chicken coated in a sweet and spicy sauce.



These crispy Korean chicken dakgangjeong nuggets are often confused with another Korean fried crispy chicken called yangnyeom chicken (양념치킨). The difference between those two recipes is that dakgangjeong uses small chicken pieces while the yangnyeom chicken recipe calls for bone-in fried chicken wings.
