Since we end up taking the chicken off the skewers anyway, why not just skip them from the start? That’s how this recipe came to be!

Recipe background:
My family says, “It feels more authentic with skewers,” but honestly, this way is so much easier for the cook! The easier it is, the more often it shows up on our dinner table—so I hope they don’t mind. Sometimes I’ll make it the traditional way with skewers, though!

Steps

  1. 1

    In a bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the yakitori sauce and set aside.

スーパーで手軽に買える食材を使い、安くて簡単な料理を作ることが好きな主婦です。2010年、子供が下宿を始めたことをきっかけに『下宿生応援レシピ』などでクックパッドを始めました。その後、フライパンケーキ、パン作り、フライパンの底から5mmや1cmの油で作る唐揚げやフライなど、色々なものに興味を持ちながら日々の料理をしておりました。今では、孫が食べやすいものはどんなものかなぁ…と考えるようになり、月日の流れを感じます。今後も、食べた人に笑顔になってもらえるよう、私自身楽しく料理を続けていきたいと思います。とうぞ、よろしくお願いいたします。 　　　 ほっこり〜の
