  • Add the onion and carrots to the chicken, toss together. Simmer for another 5-10 minutes.
  • Add the potatoes and simmer again for another 10 minutes. Cooking time will vary depends on the size of your vegetables.
  • When the vegetables are just tender, uncover the pan. Raise the heat to med-high, and cook another 3-4 minutes.
  • Lastly sprinkle chilies, green onion, and heat though. Remove the pan from the heat. Let the stew rest for 5-10 minutes before you serve. The sauce will thicken as the stew rests. Serve the stew with rice.

DAKDORITANG (KOREAN SPICY CHICKEN STEW)



Dakdoritang (Korean Spicy Chicken Stew) image

'Dakdoritang' is a chicken dish that's cooked in a spicy red sauce along with vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and onions. It's also called 'dakbokkeumtang' or 'dakmaeuntang.' It's usually made by cutting up a whole chicken into small pieces, but I use a combination of chicken thighs and wings. The result is succulent pieces of chicken packed with spicy and savory flavors!

KOREAN SPICY CHICKEN STEW (DAKDORI TANG)



Korean Spicy Chicken Stew (Dakdori Tang) image

This recipe, from the Brooklyn chef Sohui Kim, is an ideal one-pot weeknight meal, as everything - chicken included - is thrown into the pot. Soy sauce, fiery gochugaru (Korean dried red-pepper flakes), fish sauce and radish kimchi give this stew a deeply funky, satisfying flavor. During the summer, Ms. Kim grills a few of the chicken pieces (see note) and tosses them into the sauce to braise with the sauce. The kimchi called for here is not cabbage kimchi, it is kkakdugi, sometimes listed as cubed radish kimchi or cubed moo radish kimchi, available at Korean grocery stores.
