Sauce Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 8 Tbsp corn syrup (or other liquid sweetener)
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- 1 Tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 Tbsp gochugaru (Korean chili powder)
- 3 Tbsp minced garlic
- 4 Tbsp apple juice
- Generous pinch of black pepper
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 8 Tbsp corn syrup (or other liquid sweetener)
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- 1 Tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 Tbsp gochugaru (Korean chili powder)
- 3 Tbsp minced garlic
- 4 Tbsp apple juice

Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Let’s start by preparing the delicious seasoned chicken sauce. In a pot or pan, combine 2 Tbsp soy sauce, 8 Tbsp corn syrup, 1 Tbsp sugar, 1 Tbsp oyster sauce, 1 Tbsp gochugaru, 3 Tbsp minced garlic, 4 Tbsp apple juice, and a generous pinch of black pepper. Stir everything together well and bring it to a simmer over medium-low heat. Once the sauce begins to bubble, reduce the heat to low and let it gently cook, stirring occasionally, for about 2-3 minutes until it thickens to a desired consistency. Be careful not to let it burn, and low and slow is key for a rich flavor.
Step 2
While the sauce is simmering, prepare the chili peppers. Wash the green and red chili peppers, remove the stems, and slice them diagonally about 0.5 cm thick. Now, place your store-bought fried chicken in a large bowl. Pour the wonderfully cooked seasoned sauce generously over the chicken. Add the sliced green and red chili peppers to the bowl. Gently toss everything together until the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce. Coating the chicken while it’s still warm will help the sauce penetrate better for maximum flavor.
Step 3
Finally, arrange the seasoned chicken attractively on a serving plate. For an extra touch, sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds or crushed peanuts on top for a more visually appealing and flavorful finish. Enjoy your homemade, warm, and delicious seasoned chicken with your family and friends! The combination of crispy fried chicken and the sweet, spicy, and savory signature sauce is truly exceptional.
