Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Roast the chicken thoroughly first so its juices and fat fully infuse the kimchi, giving the broth deep umami flavor.
  • You can substitute udon noodles with other noodles like glass noodles or ramen, depending on what you have on hand.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a spicy, hot soup to warm up on chilly days.
  • People who want to try a different texture by using chicken instead of pork in kimchi stew.
  • Fans of hearty stews where cheese, udon, and meat come together in one satisfying bowl.
