Salt-Seasoned Yakitori on a Grill
I tried "Very Juicy Salty Fried Chicken"and wanted make a healthy version by grilling the chicken instead. The same amount of salt as sugar, and grated garlic work well!
The grilling time differs, depending on the type of and how many skewers you can cook at once.
Keep an eye on the skewers as they cook and adjust the grilling time accordingly.
If they look like they're burning on the surface, but not cooked through, take them out of the grill and microwave to heat through. Recipe by Hokkori-no

Easy Yakitori with a Skillet and Broiler Easy Yakitori with a Skillet and Broiler
Thank you for the 40 reports! This is an easy yakitori recipe where you cook the chicken in a skillet without skewers, then finish it under the broiler to get that classic grilled look. My kids loved it and said it was delicious!Recipe background:When I went shopping, my youngest kept begging for yakitori—'Buy yakitori! I want yakitori!'—but since it's expensive to buy, I decided to make it myself (haha). Just cooking it in a skillet didn't give it that grilled look, so I tried finishing it under the broiler, and my kids were thrilled with the result!

Easy Yakitori at Home Easy Yakitori at Home
My family loves yakitori. Since there are lots of hungry boys in my family, it can get expensive to eat out. That's why we try to make it at home.Please adjust the sweetness of the sauce. When the chicken is freshly cooked, dip in the sauce. It prevents the chicken from getting dry. The oil that drips off the chicken when you dip the skewers in it gradually adds flavor to the sauce. You can pour the leftover sauce on top later, use it for a stir-fry, or pour it over rice. For 30 skewers. Recipe by Keikunno okusan -

I always make this with chicken thighs, but I thought if I could make it in the salted chicken style then chicken breasts could also become nice and tender.Since you flour the chicken breasts when you add the sauce it'll develop a creamy thickness.Peppering the meat before applying the flour gives it a more developed taste.
