Steps
- 1
Trim any yellow fat from the chicken thigh (it can make it greasy!) and cut into small, bite-sized pieces.
- 2
Place the chicken in a plastic bag, add salt and pepper, and massage to season.
- 3
Add cornstarch and some air to the bag, then shake to coat the chicken evenly.
- 4
Cook the chicken in a skillet. Once one side is browned, flip the pieces and cover with a lid.
- 5
When both sides are golden brown, add the mixed sauce ingredients (soy sauce, sugar, sake, mirin). Cook until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken. (Leftovers can be frozen.)
