The Story Behind the Dish
Braising meat with aged kimchi is a classic Korean technique — kimchi-jjim, slow-cooked kimchi with pork, is a beloved home dish.
This version uses chicken and smoky bacon, a pairing that reflects how Korean cooks happily adopt Western ingredients.
⭐ Why It's Famous
Smoky, sour and spicy, it turns a jar of old kimchi into a showstopping dinner.
💡 Fun Fact
Processed meats like Spam and bacon became popular in Korea after the Korean War and now appear in many dishes, from budae-jjigae to kimbap.
