Buldak, meaning "fire chicken" in Korean, is a popular spicy dish originating from South Korea. Known for its fiery flavor, Buldak typically consists of bite-sized pieces of chicken coated in a marinade made with gochugaru (Korean chili flakes), soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sugar, then grilled or pan-fried to perfection. Often topped with melted cheese and paired with rice cakes or a side of steamed rice, it combines rich and bold flavors with satisfying textures. While the lean protein in chicken offers nutritional benefits such as supporting muscle growth and repair, the dish's high sodium content and sugary marinade may not be ideal for those monitoring salt or added sugar intake. Additionally, its intense spiciness can stimulate metabolism but might pose a challenge for individuals with sensitive stomachs. Buldak is a flavorful treat best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
