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.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
8 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup gochujang
3 tablespoons coarse gochugaru
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces
2 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, diced (4 cups), or 12 whole baby potatoes
1 cup cubed moo radish kimchi
2 Korean green chiles or 3 Serrano chiles, sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 bunch scallions, white parts only, cut into 2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Make a seasoning paste by mixing the soy sauce, ginger, garlic, gochujang, gochugaru, fish sauce and sugar in a small bowl.
  • In a large sauce pot, combine the chicken with the seasoning paste and 3 cups water. Bring to a boil, cover the pot then reduce the heat so it cooks at a simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Add the potatoes and radish and cook for another 15 minutes, covered, on low heat. Add more water if the pot looks dry.
  • Stir in the green chiles and scallions. Let everything cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, uncovered, until the sauce thickens slightly. Portion into bowls and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Use a whole chicken or chicken pieces with skin and bones for the best flavor. Avoid using boneless, skinless chicken breasts, as they can become dry and tough when slow-cooked.
  • Use a variety of spices: The key to this dish is the flavorful spice mixture. Be sure to use a variety of spices, including gochugaru (Korean chili powder), paprika, garlic powder, ginger powder, and black pepper. You can also add other spices to your taste, such as cumin, coriander, or turmeric.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in the spice mixture for at least 30 minutes helps to infuse it with flavor. If you have time, you can marinate the chicken for up to 24 hours.
  • Slow-cook the chicken: Slow-cooking the chicken helps to tenderize it and make it fall-off-the-bone tender. Cook the chicken on low for at least 4 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve with rice or noodles: This dish is traditionally served with rice or noodles. You can also serve it with a variety of side dishes, such as kimchi, japchae, or gyeranmari.
