While there are many versions of this dish in Korea - sometimes chargrilled, often topped with melted cheese - the recipe always features a punchy, spicy sauce and chewy rice cakes, a staple of Korean cooking. If you don't have time to marinade the chicken for the full 4 hours don't worry - you can reduce the marinating time to 30 minutes and the result will still be delicious.
