Korean Fried Chicken, or KFC, is a popular dish originating from South Korea, characterized by its crispy, golden-brown exterior and flavorful seasonings. Unlike traditional fried chicken, it is typically double-fried, giving it an extra-crunchy texture while maintaining tender, juicy meat inside. It is often seasoned with a variety of sauces, such as a sweet and spicy gochujang-based glaze, soy garlic, or honey butter. Made from chicken pieces like wings, thighs, or drumsticks, it can be served as a meal or snack, often accompanied by pickled radishes or cold beer. While Korean Fried Chicken offers a protein-rich option, it is deep-fried in oil, which increases its fat and calorie content. The sauces can also contribute added sugars and sodium. Enjoyed in moderation, this dish is a flavorful treat, but pairing it with lighter sides and being mindful of portion sizes can help balance its nutritional profile.
