Korean-style chicken
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. For me, this classic Korean-style chicken recipe has become a real discovery this year, as until now I had no idea such a way of cooking chicken even existed. Although all the required ingredients are quite common, combining them in one dish might seem rather unusual to us. That's exactly what I first thought too, but still decided to give it a try and made this exotic dish for dinner. Honestly, I didn't expect such a result—the chicken turns out incredibly tender, with a unique flavor, simply melting in your mouth. The sugar mixed with soy sauce gives the chicken a very interesting color and taste. Overall, some might find the dish too sweet for meat, but it's definitely worth trying, especially since it's very easy to make. And if you have all the necessary ingredients on hand, go ahead and get started—my Korean-style chicken recipe with photos will guide you through the process. The finished dish is ready to be served.

Step 1
To prepare this dish, you can use any part of the chicken. I had drumsticks, so I washed them under water and let them dry slightly. Then I heated vegetable oil in a skillet and placed the chicken in it. It needs to be seared lightly on each side.

Then add a small amount of water to the pan, cover it with a lid, and simmer the chicken over low heat for 10-15 minutes.

After 15 minutes, open the lid and sprinkle one tablespoon of sugar over each piece of chicken. Cover again with the lid and simmer for 10 minutes. During this time, the sugar should caramelize.
