Yakitori is perfect for gathering everyone around the electric griddle! If you don't have bamboo skewers, toothpicks work too for the vibe!
Recipe background: I wanted to enjoy yakitori at home.

Steps

1

Cut the chicken thighs into 3/4-inch cubes (about 2 cm). Slice the green onion into 3/4-inch pieces. Cut the onion into wedges. Slice the eggplant into thin rounds, then cut in half.
2

Thread the chicken and green onion alternately onto skewers.
3

Thread the other ingredients as you like! Try sausages with veggies, or chikuwa with veggies—kids might eat more veggies this way!
4

Arrange the skewers on the electric griddle and grill. While grilling, combine all the sauce ingredients (marked ★) in a separate saucepan and bring to a boil.
5

After grilling, serve with your choice of sauce or just salt and pepper.
