Andong Jjimdak
''Andong-jjimdak'' () is a variety of ''jjim'' (a Korean steamed or boiled dish), which originated in the city of Andong, North Gyeongsang province and is made with chicken, various vegetables marinated in a ''ganjang'' ( Korean soy sauce) based sauce. Origin There are many speculations on the origin of the dish. One is that it is a specialty food of the inner rich village of Andong during the Joseon period, prepared and eaten for special occasions. Another assumption is that during the 1980s in the ''Dak golmok'' (닭골목, literally "chicken alley") of the "Andong Gu Market," restaurant owners there made a dish including ingredients that regulars demanded, which became the current ''Andong-jjimdak''. The most plausible speculation among existing assumptions is that merchants of the ''Dak golmok'' at the market created the dish to keep their position against the rapid expansion of Western fried chicken shops.
