SLOW COOKER DAKDORI TANG

Steps:

• In a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker combine the potatoes, carrots, garlic, onion, green chile, gochujang, soy sauce, gochugaru, ginger, sugar and sesame oil. Mix well with a spatula to evenly distribute the seasoning on all ingredients. Add the chicken and mix to coat.
• Cook until the vegetables and chicken are tender, 4 to 5 hours on high. The stew will hold well on warm after the cook time has elapsed.
• Serve the stew in bowls over rice topped with scallions and sesame seeds.

KOREAN SPICY CHICKEN STEW (DAKDORI TANG)

Steps:

• Make a seasoning paste by mixing the soy sauce, ginger, garlic, gochujang, gochugaru, fish sauce and sugar in a small bowl.
• In a large sauce pot, combine the chicken with the seasoning paste and 3 cups water. Bring to a boil, cover the pot then reduce the heat so it cooks at a simmer for 15 minutes.
• Add the potatoes and radish and cook for another 15 minutes, covered, on low heat. Add more water if the pot looks dry.
• Stir in the green chiles and scallions. Let everything cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, uncovered, until the sauce thickens slightly. Portion into bowls and serve immediately.

INSTANT POT DAKDORI TANG

Steps:

• In a 6- to 8-quart electric pressure cooker, combine the potatoes, carrots, garlic, onion, green chile, gochujang, soy sauce, gochugaru, ginger, sugar, sesame oil and 1 1/2 cups water. Mix well with a spatula to evenly distribute the seasoning with all ingredients. Add the chicken and mix to coat. Close the lid and twist the steam valve to the sealed position. Set to cook on high pressure for 8 minutes.
• Turn the pressure cooker off, then do a quick release of the pressure by carefully twisting the steam valve to vent. If you'd like to reduce the liquid, remove the chicken to serving bowls with tongs, then let the stew bubble for a few minutes on the simmer setting. Taste, and add a little more sugar (up to 1 more tablespoon) to round the flavor out to your preference. Serve the stew in bowls topped with scallions and sesame seeds, with rice.

DAKDORITANG (KOREAN SPICY CHICKEN STEW)

Steps:

• Stir water, soy sauce, rice wine, red chili pepper paste, red chili pepper flakes, honey, sugar, and black pepper together in a large pot; add chicken and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, place a lid on the pot, and cook at a simmer until the chicken is browned, about 15 minutes.
• Stir potatoes, carrots, onion, garlic, and ginger into the chicken mixture; replace cover atop the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove cover and cook until the chicken is tender and the liquid has thickened slightly, about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into a piece of chicken near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Stir scallions, sesame oil, and sesame seeds into the stew and remove pot from heat.
