Simple Non-fried Chicken Nanban

Someone told me that the chicken becomes tender by coating it with sugar. So I tried this method and made this chicken nanban. It was tender even the next day after warming up in microwave!When I am in a hurry, I cut up the chicken into smaller sizes so the heat goes through quicker.Substitute 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise with plain yogurt to make a little healthier tartar sauce.

You can make this with chicken thigh as well, but I think breast meat is better for you so I prefer it.Plenty of oil should leak out of the skin, so there's no need to add any extra to the pan. Any excess will also be wiped off, so this is a really healthy recipe.If you add a little water to the tartar sauce, it should become smoother. Recipe by Mikikoshi

I created this recipe because I wanted to feel healthy while enjoying my meals.Since the meat contains enough fat, you can cook it without oil. Recipe by Yuchochon

This is deep fried chicken with tartar sauce. Inspired from Portugal and Spain due to being marinated with vinegar based sauce and deep frying technics which the Portuguese taught the Japanese in the 17th century. Naban means Foreign.

Chicken nanban is a specialty of my native Miyazaki Prefecture. It's a family recipe I learned from my grandmother.The secret to tender meat is to coat the chicken in the sweet vinegar sauce as soon as they are finished frying. Recipe by Kiguchanchi

I made this in an easy-to-eat size with a light flavor for kids to eat!! Wrap it up in lettuce for an even-more delicious taste.Cut the chicken tenders in diagonal slices. Pour sake over it and set aside. You're going to add the sauce and bring to a boil, so be careful not to overcook the chicken from the beginning! Recipe by Nacchikaasan

I love Chicken Nanban from Miyazaki Prefecture so I uploaded this recipe as a record for my daughter and I.I thought at first that the marinade might be a little tart, but it ended up just right when served with the tartar sauce.If you don't want the marinade to be sour, just increase the amount of sugar.

The typical chicken nanban recipe calls only for egg dredging, but to prevent burning and for better absorption of the toppings, I dusted the chicken in flour and it was a total success.It also absorbs the sauce better and gives a juicier finish.Since the pickle taste in store-bought tartar sauce tends to be too strong and bold, adjust with mayonnaise and milk.Tartar sauce also tastes great with rakkyo (picked shallots) or shiba-zuke (Kyoto-style pickles). A good way to use up the ones in the back of your fridge.The finer you mince the pickles, the better they'll blend with the chicken. Recipe by Keichon

The nanban marinade is little richer than what's used for horse mackerel nanban.Although I love chicken nanban from Miyazaki Prefecture, I love this chicken breast nanban too since I can eat it with plenty of vegetables.For those hot summer days when you don't feel like eating anything, leave this dish to chill in your refrigerator and then serve.

Eat lots of chicken and vegetables to prevent fatigue from the summer heat.Browning the kabocha squash and chicken well makes it nice and shiny.The kabocha squash should be sliced around 5mm thick. I used leftover vegetables this time, so I didn't add a lot of vegetables. You could add more vegetables if you want. Reduce the sauce until there is only a little liquid left in the pan.

My hubby loves this dish. Serve with my family's delicious tartar sauce because they are a great combination.I posted this recipe and the tartar sauce recipeon my blog, and they were very popular. Many people have already cooked this recipe. Recipe by Yuka mama

I added nanban sauce to my favorite chicken!-Once fried, place the chicken into the tray with the vegetables and sauce while still hot. This will allow the sauce to soak into the chicken.-Bring the chicken to room temperature before deep-frying.-Cutting the chicken to an even thickness will prevent uneven frying.-If you cut into the thick section of the chicken, it will cook faster. Be careful not to burn it. Recipe by Cooking S Papa
