Spicy Korean Boneless Wings

We are snowed in here on the East Coast, but we are all bundled up and ready for some football! With the playoffs in full swing and the Superbowl on the horizon, Keith has been working on a wing recipe with a little extra kick. He has nailed it with this one. Inspired by our favorite Korean flavors, these spicy boneless wings are perfectly suited for our all-American pastime. I introduced Keith to Korean food within weeks of our first date. I could not believe he had never experienced the deliciously complex and distinctive flavors of my most favorite cuisine. I used to travel to Seoul quite often for work, and I was hooked at first bite. My local coworkers nicknamed me “Jackie Lee”, as they were certain I had Korean genes hidden somewhere. The world as since caught on to my obsession, as evidenced with all the fusion restaurants and food trucks popping up all over the place.
Keith’s induction happened a little more slowly than I would have liked. He really liked Korean barbecue, but he wasn’t so keen on the “banchan” (small dishes that surround each meal). It was actually our discovery of the brilliant Korilla food truck that put him over the edge. My all-American man was completely blown away by Korean flavors wrapped in a burrito. Who knew?
So in the spirit of Korean fusion food and football, these spicy Korean boneless wings were born.  Keith used his new favorite ingredient, gochujang paste, to put an updated spin on his traditional wing sauce recipe. I couldn’t be more proud, and my belly couldn’t be more happy.
