Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 0.66 lb boneless chicken thigh or breast
- pinch of salt (for the chicken)
- 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour (plain flour) or potato/corn starch (for the chicken)
- 1 ½ Tbsp Japanese mayonnaise (such as Kewpie Mayo, 0.53 oz/15 g per 1 Tbsp. For a homemade version, please refer to the linked article.)
Japanese teriyaki sauce:
- 1 ½ Tbsp sake
- 1 ½ Tbsp mirin
- ½ Tbsp sugar
- 1 ½ Tbsp soy sauce
Garnish (optional):
- spring mix
- cherry tomatoes
Instructions
- Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Sprinkle it with salt, then lightly coat both sides with flour or starch.
- In a small bowl, mix the ingredients for Japanese teriyaki sauce (sake, mirin, sugar, and soy sauce).
- Heat oil in a pan and sauté the chicken over medium heat until both sides are lightly browned.
- Blot any excess oil from the pan with paper towels. Pour the sauce from the bowl into the pan, increase the heat slightly, and let it simmer. Flip the chicken occasionally to coat it evenly in the sauce, cooking until the sauce thickens.
- Once the sauce has thickened, add the mayonnaise and stir well to combine. To prevent the sauce from burning, turn off the heat immediately after mixing in the mayonnaise.
- Serve the chicken on a plate and garnish with a spring mix and cherry tomatoes on the side, if desired.
Notes
- You can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
