INSTRUCTIONS
"Koreans in the southern part of the country like salty and chili-hot foods. The cities of Kwangju and Chongju in the southwest Korea, where I spent some culinary research time, are centers for this hot salty dish." Cut the chicken into 3-inch pieces. Divide the wings. Mix the parts with the sugar and marinate for 1 hour or more (the sugar is a tenderizer). Mix together all the other seasonings -- garlic, scallion, ginger, soy sauce, gochu jang, sesame oil and sesame seeds. Mix well, add to the chicken, and marinate for another hour. Pour the 1/2 cup of water into a pan and bring to a boil. Add the chicken and marinade and simmer, covered, over low heat for about 1/2 hour, which is enough to cook the chicken and evaporate nearly all the liquid. Stir the mixture once or twice during this process. Serve warm with rice, salads and kimchi.
