In his Korean Fire Chicken Taquitos, served with a kimchi salsa, Chef Michael Israel marries two global flavor pantries in a contemporary union. The dish gets a flavor punch from Custom Culinary® Korean-Style Sweet Heat Sauce, applied generously in the chicken mixture, the taquito filling and the kimchi salsa. “The sauce has great upfront sweetness that then quickly transitions into a very savory heat full of umami,” he says. The taquito format makes Korean Fire Chicken more approachable for first-timers and presents a fun twist for existing fans of the dish.
