Steps:
- Whisk ⅔ cup gochujang, ½ cup soy sauce, ⅓ cup brown rice vinegar or unseasoned rice vinegar, ⅓ cup sugar, ¼ cup fish sauce, ¼ cup gochugaru, ¼ cup grapeseed or vegetable oil, ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce, 3 Tbsp. toasted sesame oil, 2 Tbsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 Tbsp. plus ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, 2 Tbsp. ground coriander, and 2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper in a small bowl to combine. Reserve and refrigerate ½ cup buldak sauce for basting.
- Place 12 large chicken drumsticks (about 3 lb.) in a large resealable plastic bag and pour in remaining buldak sauce. Seal bag and chill at least 1 hour and up to 12 hours.
- Prepare a grill for high indirect heat (for a gas grill, leave 1 or 2 burners off; for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side); oil grate. Remove drumsticks from sauce, letting excess drip back into bag, and arrange over indirect heat; transfer sauce to a clean small bowl. Cover grill and grill drumsticks (this is a low-and-slow heat situation), brushing with reserved sauce and turning every 5 minutes or so, until sticky, well-coated, and cooked through (an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of chicken and avoiding bone should register 165°), 30-40 minutes.
- Transfer drumsticks to a platter and serve with copious amounts of steamed white rice. Do ahead: Buldak sauce can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill.

CURRY CHICKEN CROISSANTS
These croissant sandwiches are heavenly. They make a great entree for a luncheon. I've served them at a bridal shower and everyone requested the recipe. I cut back on the amount of curry powder -- but that's just personal preference. If you are a big curry powder fan, then you will probably want to add the amount listed in the recipe.

Tips:
- To ensure your croissants are flaky and light, use cold butter and work it into the dough quickly. Avoid overworking the dough, as this can make it tough.
- If you don't have time to make the dough from scratch, you can use store-bought puff pastry. Just be sure to thaw it according to the package directions before using.
- For a more flavorful filling, use a combination of cooked chicken, vegetables, and herbs. You can also add cheese or cream sauce for a richer flavor.
- To make sure your croissants are cooked through, bake them until they are golden brown and the filling is heated through. You can also use a meat thermometer to check that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Conclusion:
Chicken and rice croissants are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a flaky, flavorful croissant that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give chicken and rice croissants a try!
