Our Korean Fried Chicken (KFC) Burger takes inspiration from the wildly popular Korean fried chicken trend, known for its crispy, paper-thin crust and juicy, tender meat. Double-fried for that extra crunch, this burger features a gochujang based sauce—a spicy, savoury chilli sauce loved for its deep flavour and fiery kick. It’s the perfect way to enjoy this Korean favorite in burger form, bringing the bold, spicy flavours right to your plate!
Ingredients:
For the Chicken
4 boneless & skinless chicken thighs
A good sprinkle of Avohaven Salt'n'Peppa
100gms cornflower (for coating the chicken)
Oil for frying (any vegetable oil will do)
For the Sauce
6 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons Gochujang Paste (Korean Chilli Paste)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2-3 medium sized garlic cloves crushed
(2 cloves if they are large)
2 teaspoons sesame oil
For the Slaw
(you can use any type of slaw you like. Store brought is also good)
2 cups cabbage thinly sliced
1 cup red cabbage thinly sliced
2 celery stalks sliced
2 carrots peeled grated thick
1 red onion finely chopped
small bunch of coriander or parsley finely chopped
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
3 tbsp light mayonnaise
3 tbsp soured cream or Greek yoghurt
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
A good sprinkle of Avohaven BBQ Salt
Instructions:
For the Slaw
Combine all the ingredients together in a bowl and mix well. Set aside in the fridge until you are ready to assemble your burger.
For the Sauce
Put all the ingredients in a pot over medium heat and stir until it starts to thicken and becomes a syrup. Bring the syrup to a gentle simmer. Don't boil.
For the Chicken
Add the cornflower and a few good pinches of Avohaven Salt'n'Peppa (or use salt and pepper with a pinch of chilli powder) to a bowl or large snaplock bag. Add your chicken and ensure the chicken is completely coated.
Add 2-3cm of vegetable oil to a deep pan and bring to a medium heat.
Fry your chicken thighs for 4-5 mins each side until they become crisp. Remove and allow to sit on paper town for 2 mins. Then re-fry your chicken for a second time until they are ultra crispy.
Assemble your burgers however you prefer. We added our bun then added our fried chicken with a slather of sauce and a decent helping of slaw. Pickles work amazingly well in here also.
