Maangchi is a popular Korean cooking YouTuber and author who shares delicious Korean recipes, including a popular recipe for Korean fried chicken. Here's a simple adaptation of Maangchi's Korean Fried Chicken recipe:

Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
2.5 to 3 pounds of chicken wings or drumettes
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup potato starch or cornstarch for coating
For the Sauce:
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes)
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
For Frying:
Vegetable oil for deep frying
Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken:

Wash the chicken pieces and pat them dry with paper towels.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Coat the Chicken:

Coat the chicken pieces with potato starch or cornstarch. Make sure each piece is well-coated, shaking off any excess starch.

Fry the Chicken:

Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a heavy pan to 350-375°F (175-190°C).
Fry the chicken in batches for about 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fried chicken and let it drain on a paper towel.

Make the Sauce:

In a separate saucepan, combine soy sauce, water, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, gochugaru, honey, brown sugar, and sesame oil.
Simmer the sauce over medium heat until it thickens slightly, stirring occasionally.

Coat the Chicken with Sauce :

In a large bowl, toss the fried chicken with the sauce until each piece is well-coated.
Serve:

Serve the Korean fried chicken hot, garnished with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if desired.
Tips:
Adjust the amount of gochugaru to control the spiciness of the sauce.
For an extra crispy texture, double fry the chicken. Fry once until it's cooked through , then fry a second time for a few minutes until it's extra crispy.

Serve the Korean fried chicken with pickled radishes or your favorite dipping sauce.
