Looking for a super bowl party appetizer but want something different? This recipe of Korean style mini fried chicken with a sweet and mildly spiced sauce is the perfect finger food for game nights and to accompany chilled beer. Aeri uses bite sized pieces of chicken breast making them easy to eat without the bone and skin, unlike other favorites like chicken wings or chicken lollipops. Definitely worth trying for a cocktail party or football game someday.Chef
