 Chicken Pancake, Dak Pajeon

Hello K Friends! How are you doing? Hope you are doing very well! Today, I’m excited to share chicken pancake (Dak Pajeon) with you, a dish that many people in Korea say is even better than fried chicken. It’s super tasty and really easy to make! Hope you enjoy!😊

Ingredients

• 1lb (450g) chicken thigh or breast
• 3 green onions
• 6 tablespoons potato starch
• 3-4 tablespoons water
• A pinch of salt and pepper
• 2 tablespoons cooking wine (mirin)
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1/2 tablespoon chicken powder
• Cooking oil

Dipping Sauce

• 2T soy sauce
• 1T sugar
• 1t minced garlic
• 2T lemon juice or vinegar

Instructions

Chicken Thighs: Trim excess fat from Costco chicken thighs and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Use a food processor to chop, but leave some texture for better taste. 

Seasoning: Mix the minced chicken with 3 pinches of salt, pepper, 2 tbsp cooking wine, and 1 tbsp minced garlic. Marinate for 10 minutes. 

Green Onion: Slice 3 green onions thinly. Finely chop a red chili pepper, if using. 

Batter: Add the chopped green onions and red chili to the chicken. Mix in 4 tbsp of potato starch, and optionally, 3 tbsp of breadcrumbs for crispiness. Add 1 tsp of chicken powder and 3-4 tbsp of water. Mix thoroughly. 

Dipping Sauce: Combine 2 tbsp of soy sauce, 1 tbsp of sugar, 1 tsp of minced garlic, and 2 tbsp of lemon juice or vinegar. 

Pan-Frying: Preheat a pan with oil. Place spoonfuls of the batter and flatten them. Cook on medium-low until both sides are golden brown. 

Finish: Garnish with drained green onion strips for a nice presentation (optional). Enjoy your savory chicken pancakes!
