Korean fried chicken and pickled radish are paired together in the minds of anyone who’s ever eaten either. The warm crispy chicken is perfectly matched by the cold, sweet & sour vinegary small cubes of radish. It is fair to call the pairing a marriage made in heaven.

Chicken-mu – Pickled Korean Radish Cubes

These wonderful little cubes of salty-sweet-sour radish take about 2-3 minutes to prepare and another 2 hours in the refrigerator just chilling. Serve with fried chicken, of course, but they are also a great counter to grilled chicken and meats.
