What garnish is used on the Korean Fried Chicken?

• A. Lime zest
• B. Sesame Seeds
• C. Black pepper
• D. Garlic flakes

Answer: (B)

Sesame seeds are a traditional finishing touch on Korean fried chicken. They’re sprinkled on top after frying to add a subtle nutty flavor, a light crunch, and a visual contrast that complements the glossy sauces common to this style of chicken. Lime zest isn’t typical here because citrus isn’t a standard garnish for this dish and would clash with the savory-sweet profile. Black pepper is usually used in the seasoning or sauce rather than as a garnish, and garlic flakes are more often part of the sauce rather than a final topping. So sesame seeds best fit as the garnish.
