Ingredients

  • 2 Chicken Breasts
  • 2 Brioche Buns
  • 4 Cheddar Slices (2 Per burger)
  • Lettuce Leaves
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 cups Cornflour
  • 1 tbsp Garlic Powder
  • 3 tbsp Gochujang Paste
  • 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 2 tbsp Mirin

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine Gochujang paste, honey, soy sauce, mirin, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
    Mix well to create a flavorful marinade.
  • Cut the chicken breasts into burger-sized pieces.
    Lightly season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
    Whisk one egg in a separate bowl.
    Dip each piece of chicken into the egg, ensuring it is well-coated.
    Coat each piece in the marinade, ensuring even coverage.
    Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes, or for more flavor, refrigerate for a few hours.
  • In a separate bowl, combine cornflour, all-purpose flour, and garlic powder.
  • Take each marinated chicken piece and coat it thoroughly in the flour mixture.
    Shake off any excess flour.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
    Fry the coated chicken until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 5 minutes per side.
    Place the cooked chicken on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
  • In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and Gochujang paste to create a spicy burger sauce.
    Spread the Gochujang-mayo sauce on both sides of the buns.
  • Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun.
    Add a piece of fried chicken on top of the lettuce.
    Lay two slices of cheddar on each chicken piece.
    Top with the other half of the bun.
  • Repeat the process for each burger.
    Serve the Korean Fried Chicken Burgers with your favorite sides.
