My Special Dinner, Crispy Chicken Cutlet✨

Hi everyone! This week, I made a special dinner – Korean-style chicken cutlet. It’s crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and so satisfying to make and eat. 😊 I also included a simple and refreshing cabbage salad recipe at the end of the video, which pairs perfectly with the cutlet. I hope you’ll try it out and enjoy it with your loved ones! Check it out now on my YouTube channel. ✨

Step 1

Step 1: Make the Sauce: In a bowl, mix: 2 T soy sauce, 2 T cooking wine, 2 T water, 2 T honey or sugar, 2 T ketchup, 1 tsp minced garlic, ½ T gochujang (Korean red pepper paste), a pinch of pepper, 1 tsp cornstarch. Pour the mixture into a pan and simmer over medium-high heat for 1–2 minutes. Set the sauce aside for later.

Step 2

Step 2: Prepare the Chicken: Rinse and pat dry 1 pound of chicken thighs. Trim off excess fat and lightly pound the thicker parts to ensure even cooking. Season the chicken with 1 teaspoon of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of cooking wine, a few pinches of salt, and a bit of pepper. Mix everything together and let the chicken marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Step 3: Coat the Chicken: Beat 2 eggs with a pinch of salt in a bowl. Prepare separate bowls with flour and breadcrumbs. Coat each piece of chicken evenly in flour, dip it in the egg wash, and press it firmly into the breadcrumbs to ensure a thorough coating.

Step 4

Step 4: Fry the Chicken: Heat 1 cup of oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the coated chicken in the pan. Fry until one side is golden brown, then flip and cook the other side until crispy and golden. Remove the chicken and place it on paper towels to drain excess oil.

For the dressing, mix the dressing: 1 T fish sauce, 1 T soy sauce, 1 T vinegar, 1 tsp minced garlic, 1 T gochugaru, 1 T sugar, 1 T sesame seeds. Toss the sliced vegetables with the dressing for a refreshing side dish.
