  • (Twangy desert music)

  • Hello everybody!

  • I'm in the desert!

  • California desert.

  • Today, you what temperature it is?

  • 110 Fahrenheit!

  • Crazy crazy hot hot!

  • Look at this behind me

  • So nice nice desert.

  • I'm always dreaming of staying in the desert.

  • Eventually my dream came true!

  • Tonight I'm going to make spicy barbecue chicken

  • How does it sound?

  • Even though it's hot, it's still windy

  • and also it's not very wet, so I can survive here.

  • But really really hot.

  • [laughs] My legs are on fire!

  • Let's go inside and cooking!

  • You can use chicken breasts, and also chicken thighs. Anything.

  • First I like to give these guys a really good shower.

  • This is about two pounds chicken drumettes.

  • I like to wash nicely.

  • Until it's not slippery.

  • Let's put this chicken in a bowl

  • I will just add some milk and marinate.

  • And mix this...

  • It removes any gamey smell, but it's optional.

  • And keep in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

  • Meanwhile I'm going to make sauce. Spicy sauce.

  • I just brought all my seasoning paste and sauce and when I travel I always take it.

  • Sometimes when I go to the Korean grocery store in that local area, I shop.

  • But this one, mulyeot, I brought from New York.

  • For 2 pounds I will use 6 garlic cloves.

  • Let's mince.

  • And ginger.

  • Ginger and garlic!

  • And 2 green onions.

  • It's all together.

  • So now I like to make it really shiny and spicy.

  • And also sweet. So I will add a half cup of hot pepper paste.

  • Korean gochujang.

  • So it'll be really tasty.

  • This is ssalyeot, rice syrup.

  • One third cup.

  • If you don't have rice syrup, add a quarter cup sugar.

  • Add two tablespoons hot pepper flakes.

  • Two... and sesame oil, one tablespoon.

  • And last thing, is black pepper.

  • Around half teaspoon.

  • And mix well.

  • So this sauce looks like a paste, not very saucy.

  • Then, let's wait for chicken.

  • (twanging desert tunes)

  • 30 minutes passed.

  • I'll bring my chicken.

  • I have to strain this.

  • Just squeeze out all excess milk.

  • Add this.

  • There's a spicy sauce.

  • And use hands...

  • Just mix well.

  • All these guys are red guys.

  • Now I cook from now.

  • But I like to leave it to marinate for 10 minutes.

  • While I'm traveling, especially with my family members,

  • I like to make some good protein.

  • I always use pork, chicken, or beef.

  • Yesterday I barbecued beef short ribs.

  • Tonight, chicken.

  • And tomorrow, I will use some fish.

  • Because this house has a barbecue, I like to barbecue every day. (laughs)

  • Koreans eat barbecue, not only barbecue, we eat with more vegetables

  • Of course we eat with rice.

  • Today I made acorn jelly salad.

  • Also really really good for when you travel.

  • Because when you travel, you can carry some powder - acorn jelly powder, starch.

  • And then just make a kind of porridge and then cool down to a solid.

  • And then you can add all kinds of vegetables and make sauce on top.

  • That's acorn jelly salad, and also cold cucumber soup.

  • Very fit to hot summer like this.

  • And kimchi, of course, and rice, with any type of barbecue.

  • So we eat really small portion for each person.

  • I made this 2 pounds of chicken, we can share this with 4 to 6 people.

  • So let's barbecue!

  • Usually American grills have a lot of gaps.

  • So like thin bulgogi, when you cook this on a barbecue

  • it will easily fall through.

  • In that case I use tin foil.

  • And then I make a lot of holes and then put it here.

  • And then when you cook bulgogi on the barbecue, you can do that.

  • We still have leftover paste, sauce.

  • I will just brush this later.

  • And turn it over...

  • Wow, smells so good!

  • My chicken is well cooked right now.

  • I use my chopstick, to poke this with this

  • If this goes through easily

  • and no liquid comes out, it's well done.

  • Occasionally I just turned it over.

  • Because this is sticky sauce, I don't want it to be burnt.

  • Today I showed you how to make Korean style spicy barbecue chicken

  • So easy and simple, just you mix this with seasoning paste

  • Korean seasoning paste.

  • Let me taste!

  • Mmm!

  • Yum! Spicy, and sweet and juicy!

  • Yummy.

  • I was going to eat outside but it's too hot today.

  • I'm going to bring it inside and eat inside.

  • With a few more side dishes and rice.

  • Enjoy my recipe, see you next time!

  • Bye!
