I tried my first Korean chicken heh while visiting a real Korean woman. I must say that until that moment I was quite skeptical about all the heh salads that could be bought at any point in the market, and I had never been an ardent fan of such salads. But this one captivated me literally from the first bite! It's just a celebration of taste! Moderately spicy, slightly sour, with ideal proportions of chicken and vegetables. Of course, the recipe ended up in my notebook that same day! Using this recipe, I was able to cook delicious Korean chicken heh the first time. I took a photo of the recipe so that you can see for yourself that the cooking process is not at all complicated. At least much easier than I thought. I want to warn you right away - chicken for heh is not boiled or fried, it is marinated raw, so be very careful when choosing chicken in the store. It must be absolutely fresh and from a trusted manufacturer.
Ingredients:

- carrots – 200 g,
- onions – 180 g,
- vinegar essence - 1 tbsp. l.,

How to cook chicken heh in Korean
First of all, rinse the chicken fillet, dry it and cut it against the grain into fairly thin strips. If you have problems cutting the fillet (warm meat sometimes becomes capricious and literally falls apart under your fingers), you can keep it in the freezer for about 15 minutes.
Next are vegetables. We clean them, wash them, dry them and chop them. Chop the carrots into long, thin strips. A special Korean carrot grater copes with this task perfectly. If you don't have one, a regular grater with large teeth will do. Appearance the carrots will, in my opinion, not be so pretty, but this will in no way affect the taste.
We cut large onions into half rings or quarters (if the heads are quite huge), small ones can be cut into rings.
Place the prepared vegetables in a bowl with the chicken.
Season with vinegar essence.
Afterwards, heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan until it smokes slightly, then season the heh with this hot oil.
Mix the contents of the bowl thoroughly. We taste the heh, add salt and sourness if necessary. If you suddenly overdo it with acid, you can quench it with a small amount of sugar.
Now the heh should marinate. To do this, cover the container with the salad with a flat bowl, place a weight on this bowl and load it in this form into the refrigerator, where it should stand for at least a day so that the raw chicken meat is certainly marinated. During this time, it is advisable to look into the refrigerator 3-4 times and shake the contents of the container to mix.
After a while, remove the finished chicken heh from the refrigerator. To serve, lightly squeeze the salad from the marinade and place on a plate. Sprinkle to taste sesame seeds and chopped cilantro or parsley.
Bon appetit!

I usually make this appetizer with chicken breast fillet. After marinating, the chicken turns out tender and very tasty. But theoretically, you can use meat from the legs, having first removed the bones and skin from it. Wash the bird well. Dry and cut. The pieces should be as thin as possible so that the marinade can easily soak them. I tried to make the blocks no thicker than 2-3 mm. If you are not sure about the quality of chicken and are afraid to eat it without heat treatment, first fry it over high heat in vegetable oil. And then marinate in Korean marinade. The taste and texture of the dish will be completely different. But it will also turn out delicious and piquant in an oriental way. It is important to precook the chicken before marinating. If you fry already prepared heh, the meat will become tough due to the vinegar. |

Cut the peeled and washed carrots into strips or grate them on a special grater for Korean salads. |

Feel free to add more onion, it turns out very tasty. Remove the husk from it. Cut into thin half rings. |

For brighter color and taste, I decided to add chicken khe Bell pepper. Cut the pod in half. Remove the core with seeds. Chop the pulp into thin, almost transparent strips. |
 |
|
Place all hehe ingredients in a deep bowl. Add salt and sugar. Stir. |
 |
|
Place dry spices and pressed garlic in a heap. Heat sunflower or other deodorized vegetable oil in a frying pan. Pour over seasonings and stir quickly. |
 |
|
Pour in vinegar. Canteen can be replaced with apple or rice. |
 |
|
Add soy sauce. Stir the chicken, vegetables and spices again. Cover with a lid or cling film. Place in a cool place to marinate for 1-2 days. The longer a dish is marinated, the more intense its flavor becomes. |
 |
|
Sprinkle the finished chicken heh with fresh herbs or sesame seeds toasted in a dry frying pan. Serve with boiled rice, funchose, buckwheat or rice noodles or regular pasta. Delicious even with fried potatoes, even though it’s not at all Korean. |
