Best Chicken Dishes in Seoul, Korea

Fried Chicken – best chicken dish in Korea

It’s simply not possible to not love the Korean-style fried chicken after just one bite. It can be fried or baked and you can have it with different sauces. It can be spicy, sweet, soy sauce dipped, garlic, and more. This rich Korean dish goes best with beer and pickled radish. Both the sides help take the taste of fried chicken to the next level.

Dakgalbi (spicy grilled chicken) – griddled chicken in Korea

Chicken dakgalbi is a fiery, Chuncheon dish with spicy marinated chicken breast and legs. The meat is cooked on a griddle with rice cakes, sweet potatoes, crisp lettuce leaf, and other ingredients like maybe a pickled radish. If you find it too spicy, you can add cheese to make it lesser. Usually, after eating the dish, locals eat fried rice.

Dakgangjeong (deep-fried and braised chicken) – easy to eat sweet chicken

Dakgangjeong isn’t a normal fried chicken but a unique version where smaller pieces are fried. Unlike regular fried chicken, there are no bones or dripping sauces to make a mess. It is the ultimate on-the-go dish that is perfect for comfort and snacking. The glaze on the chicken is a delicate balance of sweetness, which comes from honey or corn syrup, and a hint of savory soy sauce from gochujang. It’s also a popular Korean street food dish widely available with street vendors.

Jjimdak is a Korean braised chicken dish that’s a masterclass in savory comfort. The dish comes from Andong and now it has become popular all across the country. Jjimdak is made with braised marinated chicken and has a sweet soy sauce seasoning. There’s also a spicier version, made with gochujang, for those who like their chicken dishes fiery. Glass noodles are the highlight of the dish which soak up the delicious broth.
