What Makes Korean Fried Chicken Different?

The Secret Is in the Double Fry

Unlike many traditional fried chicken recipes, Korean fried chicken is typically double-fried.

The first fry cooks the chicken all the way through while gently rendering the fat beneath the skin. After resting, the chicken goes back into the fryer for a second time, creating an incredibly crisp exterior that stays crunchy even after it's tossed in sauce.

The result is a lighter, crispier bite that's become the hallmark of Korean fried chicken.

Flavor That Goes Beyond Heat

While spicy chicken gets plenty of attention, Korean fried chicken is about much more than heat.

Classic Korean-inspired sauces combine ingredients like garlic, soy sauce, gochujang, honey, sesame, and chili to create layers of flavor. Some are sweet. Some are smoky. Some bring a slow-building kick. Every sauce is designed to complement—not overpower—the crispy chicken underneath.

At Decibel, every order is tossed fresh so every bite delivers maximum crunch and bold flavor.
