Shake Shack Brings The New Korean-Inspired Chicken Sandwich + Menu Here in the Philippines!

First served in South Korea Shacks, a hit in the US and starting September 27 it will finally land in our Manila Shacks - our Gochujang Chick’n!

All About The Sandwich

Inspired by Seoul’s vibrant fried chicken scene, the limited-time Gochujang Chick’n (P275) features a gochujang-glazed crispy chicken breast topped with toasted sesame seeds that sits over a white kimchi slaw.

Gochujang is a flavor-packed, go-to ingredient in Korean cooking, made with red chili peppers, sticky rice, fermented soybeans, and salt. The result? A red fermented paste that’s kinda spicy, kinda sweet, packed with umami flavor, and used as an anchor in all kinds of stews, marinades, sauces, and more. To complement the gochujang, we finely chop and mix garlic and ginger into our glaze as well.

But what really brings it all together? Our white kimchi slaw! In addition to cutting through the rich flavors of our chicken, this is our tribute to the white daikon radishes often served alongside fried chicken and other dishes in Seoul. Kimchi is a staple of Korean cuisine made from salted, seasoned, and fermented veggies (ours includes Napa cabbage, daikon radish, and green onion).
