Steps

1

Trim any tendons and excess skin from the chicken. Place the chicken in a plastic bag with the cooking sake and let it marinate for a while. Thinly slice the garlic and cut the onion into thin slices about 1/4 inch (5mm) wide.
2

[Make the sauces] In a bowl, combine all [A] ingredients and mix well. In a separate bowl, combine all [B] ingredients and mix well.
3

Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with black pepper, then lightly coat with potato starch (or cornstarch), shaking off any excess.
4

Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet. Add the garlic, onion, and a pinch of salt (not listed in ingredients). Sauté over medium heat until caramelized, then remove from the pan and set aside.
5

Increase the heat to medium-high. Place the chicken skin-side down in the pan and cook until browned. Flip the chicken, add 1 tablespoon sake, cover, and steam over low heat for about 5 minutes.
6

Remove the lid, add the [A] sauce, and simmer over medium heat until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken. Add the sautéed onion and garlic back in and mix to combine.
7

Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and plate. Drizzle with the mayonnaise sauce and sprinkle with chopped scallions.
