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 :)
