Sorry for not updating regularly cuz i'm lazy. Okay, the recipe for today will be Chilli Paste Chicken.
It looks like a malay chilli chicken but it's not. My version taste a little bit sweeter and i'm not using sambal chilli.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 tbsp Korean Chilli paste
- 2 cloves of garlic ->fresh garlic preferred
- 1 yellow onion
- 1 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1/2 tspn corn syrup -> can be found in korean mart
- 1 wedge of fresh Lemon juice
- Chicken thigh/drumstick
Methods:
1) Cut the chicken into bite size
2) Cut the onion into strips and chop the garlic finely
3) Mix chilli paste, garlics, onions, soy sauce and corn syrup together and mix well.
4) Pour the mixture to the chicken and mix well so that every chicken is covered with the mixture.
5) Let the chicken sit for 20-30 mins to wait for the chicken to absorb the paste.
6) Cook the chicken in a wok or pan. Add some water if it's too dry.
7) Cover the chicken for abt 20 mins in medium low heat until it's fully cooked.
8) Lastly, add the lemon juice to the dish, stir the dish well and serve.
Why we add lemon last cuz lemon juice and enhance the flavor of the dish and there will be a hint of lemon taste in it so you will feel very appetizing.
And lemon does not compliments any dish. So dun add lemon to any dish you cook.
Next i will be updating on braised pork belly and how to cook a tangy squid using lemon.
