Dakdoritang ( Korean Stewed Chicken wt Potatoes)

Dakdoritang or Korean stewed chicken is a very easy and simple dish to cook in minimal time.The main ingredients of this dish is Kochujang.Kochujang is usually purchased in jars already prepared at Asian supermarkets and is an essential staple of the Korean kitchen. Since I'm addicted to Kdrama I try to sample all the Korean dishes by cooking myself at home. I used boneless chicken thigh,potatoes,carrot,onion ,napa and bell pepper to make this hearty delicious exquisite taste dish..
