KOREAN FRIED CHICKEN (YANGNYEOM CHICKEN)
Steps:
- Wash chicken wings, and drain thoroughly. Mix with the salt, pepper, and ginger. Let it sit in the fridge for 2 hours or longer (overnight to 24 hours).
- Combine all the sauce ingredients of your choice and stir well. Boil over medium heat until it thickens slightly, about 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the heat off.
- OPTION 1 Dry batter: If using the starch only, add the potato (or cornstarch) to the chicken, and rub it onto each wing well to coat evenly. Set aside.
- OPTION 2 Wet batter: Mix the wet batter ingredients in a bowl, and stir well until smooth with no visible lumps.
- Add the oil to a deep fryer, wok, or large pot. Heat the oil to 320°F (up to 330°F). Drop the chicken in the oil, one piece at a time. If using wet batter, dip each piece in the wet batter with tongs and shake off excess batter before dropping the chicken in the oil. Fry them in two batches. Cook until lightly golden, about 6 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken wings. Remove them with a wire skimmer or a slotted spoon. Drain on a wire rack or in a large mesh strainer set on a bowl.
- Reheat the oil to 350°F (up to 360°F). Add the chicken (you can do this in one batch for the second frying), and deep fry again, for about 5 minutes, until golden brown. Drain on a wire rack or in a large mesh strainer set on a bowl.
- You can either toss the fried chicken pieces in the sauce or hand-brush them. Sprinkle with the optional sesame seeds or chopped scallion to serve.
ELLEN'S FAMOUS CHICKEN SALAD
This is an outstanding chicken salad recipe. It makes delicious sandwiches for afternoon tea parties - have copies of the recipe on hand! The recipe comes from "Swe-e-e-et Tea & Magnolias" by Ellen Powell. Note: Salad cubes are produced in North Carolina by the Mt. Olive Pickle Company. The product is available in grocery stores throughout the southeastern United States. Finely diced pickles are a decent substitution, however.

ELLEN'S CHICKEN CACCIATORE
This recipe takes just 15 minutes to prepare and 50 minutes of cooking time, but tastes like it took a lot longer. The recipe calls for chicken thighs because the meat is more tender than chicken breasts. You can use chicken breast if you prefer.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, and brown the chicken thighs in the hot oil, about 5 minutes per side. Set the chicken aside.

- Pour in the tomatoes with their juice, white wine, orange juice, rosemary, salt, and black pepper, and stir until thoroughly combined.
- Stir in the chicken pieces and any accumulated juices, cover the skillet, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the chicken is tender and no longer pink inside, 30 to 40 minutes.

ELLEN'S CHICKEN STEW
This is my sister-in-law's recipe. Shes makes this a lot for friends and relatives who are sick. After some thought on this, I've decided and making it again recently. I've decided to cut the amount of black pepper to 1/2 tablespoon, (original says 1) that is plenty I think--especially for those who don't like food real hot. But you decide.

Tips:
- Use a combination of gochujang and gochugaru: Gochujang is a fermented red chili paste that adds a sweet and spicy flavor, while gochugaru is a Korean chili powder that adds a smoky and spicy flavor. By using both, you can create a sauce that is both flavorful and complex.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the heat level: If you like your chicken spicy, you can add more gochujang or gochugaru to the sauce. If you prefer a milder flavor, you can reduce the amount of these ingredients or omit them altogether.
- Use a variety of vegetables: The vegetables in this recipe add flavor, texture, and color. You can use any vegetables you like, but some good options include carrots, bell peppers, onions, and zucchini.
- Don't overcook the chicken: The chicken should be cooked until it is just cooked through. Overcooking will make the chicken tough and dry.
- Serve the chicken with rice or noodles: This recipe is traditionally served with rice or noodles. You can also serve it with a side of kimchi or other Korean side dishes.
Conclusion:
Korean fried chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet, spicy, and savory flavor, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
