The deeply seasoned chicken and shishito peppers made me want another bowl of rice alongside other Yesan Market snacks. A filling takeout meal for a relaxed stay-in dinner. ![A view related to Sijang Dakbokkeum at Yesan Market](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-01-z3ymd-900.webp) ![A view related to Sijang Dakbokkeum at Yesan Market](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-02-p32rv-900.webp) ![A view related to Sijang Dakbokkeum at Yesan Market](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-03-t2cqg-900.webp) ## A hotel meal with Yesan Market’s Sijang Dakbokkeum takeout When you visit Yesan Market, there is so much to eat and see that it is fun just making a lap around. This time, I tried takeout from Sijang Dakbokkeum (시장닭볶음), a popular spot at Yesan Market. ![A view of packaged Sijang Dakbokkeum](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-04-1lxv0-900.webp) ![A view of packaged Sijang Dakbokkeum](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-05-1fav3-900.webp) Eating right in the market would have been nice too, but I picked takeout that day so I could bring along some other foods and eat comfortably at the hotel. When I opened it up, that delicious, unmistakable chicken stir-fry smell came rushing out—the kind of sight that immediately makes you think of rice. ![Sijang Dakbokkeum takeout opened at the hotel](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-06-1p81e-900.webp) ![Sijang Dakbokkeum eaten with rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-07-1w5rf-900.webp) ## Chicken and shishito peppers over rice Another thing I loved was how much fuller the seasoning tasted when I ate the chicken with the shishito peppers. The chicken was deeply infused with seasoning and perfect with rice, while a shishito pepper here and there added its distinctive fragrance and gentle bite, so the meal never felt heavy. It was a takeout dish, but it did not feel lacking as a meal at all; set out with other Yesan Market foods, it made a much more generous spread than I expected. I only ordered it for something simple, but ended up looking for another bowl of rice. ![Chicken stir-fry with chicken and shishito peppers](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-08-8z5l3-900.webp) As its name suggests, Sijang Dakbokkeum is chicken stir-fried in seasoning, but it felt less like a dish that simply highlights spiciness and more like food that becomes even better with rice. The seasoning had soaked nicely into the chicken, so each bite naturally led from savory to spicy flavor. With rice on the side, it truly earned the Korean description of a “rice thief”—something so good you keep eating rice with it. ### The shishito peppers I especially enjoyed The part I especially enjoyed was the shishito peppers. Tucked among the chicken stir-fry, they absorbed the seasoning while adding their own aroma and mild heat. Eating them with the chicken made the flow of flavors much more interesting than eating chicken alone. They also kept their crisp texture, which was a lovely contrast with the tender chicken. Personally, my favorite combination was a piece of chicken and one shishito pepper placed over rice. The seasoning itself went remarkably well with rice, so I naturally kept reaching for more. ## Why it is good takeout with other Yesan Market foods Since it is takeout, you can warm it up at home or at your hotel, and it also works well for sharing alongside several other Yesan Market foods. If you are planning to buy a little of this and that at the market before settling in for a comfortable meal at your hotel, I think Sijang Dakbokkeum takeout is a very good choice. ![A takeout meal with Yesan Market foods](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-09-d3ouv-900.webp) ![A spread of Sijang Dakbokkeum prepared at the hotel](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-10-z6v0p-1200.webp) There are so many different foods at Yesan Market that choosing can be difficult, but I think Sijang Dakbokkeum would suit people who prefer a filling, familiar flavor over something flashy. Above all, the combination of chicken, seasoning, and shishito peppers stood out. Rather than being aggressively spicy, it was the kind of food that keeps drawing you back when eaten with rice, which made it very satisfying as a full meal.

I especially liked the parts with shishito peppers, and I properly enjoyed mixing rice into the seasoning too. ![Chicken stir-fry with rice mixed into the seasoning](https://img.superchart.com/images/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal-12-w6l4s-900.webp) ## Where it is - Sijang Dakbokkeum (시장닭볶음) (시장닭볶음) - 174, 2 Yesansijang-gil, Yesan-eup, Yesan-gun, Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea - 충청남도 예산군 예산읍 예산시장길 2 174호 - 36.6770061, 126.8496565 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%8B%9C%EC%9E%A5%EB%8B%AD%EB%B3%B6%EC%9D%8C/@36.6770061,126.8496565,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@vanity-drawer-2/yesan-market-chicken-rice-meal/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
