Spicy Korean Roasted Chicken
I recently bought my first bottle of Gochujang (Korean chilli paste), and it's fast becoming my go-to-jang (sauce). These roasted chicken legs were marinated in spicy, sweet, and savoury marinde. Then oven roasted till done with some caramelised charred bits for the extra yum factor!
