Korean Fried Chicken

Korean Fried Chicken

Extra-crispy chicken glazed in a sticky sweet-spicy sauce - the air fryer gives that famous crunch with far less oil.

Ingredients

  • 800 g chicken wings
  • 4 tbsp potato starch
  • 2 tbsp gochujang
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Coat the dried wings in potato starch.
  2. Air fry at 200C (400F) for 22-25 minutes until crisp.
  3. Simmer gochujang, honey, soy and garlic into a glaze.
  4. Toss the hot wings in the sauce and serve at once.

💡 Chef's tip

A light coating of potato starch (not flour) is the Korean secret to a glass-like, long-lasting crispy shell.

Tossing the fried chicken in the sauce only at the very end keeps the coating crackly; sauced too early, that signature Korean crunch goes soft within minutes.
