korean chicken (jjim dalk)

i'm really thankful that i have friends who enjoy eating.

this past weekend, my friends and i made jjim dalk.
i think i can confidently say this it was one of the best korean dishes we've ever made.

-ingredients needed:
1 whole chicken (ask the butcher to cut it up for you)
2 yellow onions
4 potatoes
2 carrots
5-8 dried red peppers
green onion (the big one...dont know what its called...but you can use normal if you want)
korean vermachelli noodles

-for the sauce:
1 cup soy sauce
3 cups water
4tbsn sugar (you can add less sugar if you dont want it to be too sweet)
4 tbsn corn syrup (we used sugar instead)
1 tbsn oyster sauce
1 tspn black pepper 
1tbsn garlic
a little sliver of ginger
3 tbsn meerim (heres a picture in case you have no idea what it is)


-first cook the chicken in boiling water for just a couple minutes

-then chop up your vegis
(cut them a little big so they dont disappear during the cooking process)
(picture is of only half the amount of vegis listed)

-place the vegis into the pot (except green onion)

-place the semi cooked chicken on top of vegis

-pour combined sauce over the chicken and vegis
-place lid and cook for almost 20 mins

  
-place the semi cooked vermachelli noodles and green onion mix and serve

 


enjoy :)
