While many people think of fried chicken as this heavily battered chicken that has a thick crust on the skin, Korean Fried Chicken is not like that. It has a thin coating rather than the thick batter on many fried types of meat. The coating on the chicken includes a bit of baking soda to help it crisp and is packed with spices and flavor. Then, it is covered in a richly spiced sauce. This all creates this very crispy chicken that has very moist and tender meat inside.
