I adapted a recipe that my mother made for me often when I was a child. My mother always used to grill this on a fish grill.

You can make this with just a few ingredients as long as you have chicken. You don't need any garnishes or toppings.
You can make this with breast meat for a light dish, but it may become a little tough. Recipe by Erueru286

Ingredients

4 servings
  1. 2Chicken thigh meat
  2. 100 mlSake
  3. 50 mlMirin
  4. 100 mlSoy sauce
  5. 1 tspSugar
  6. 1 pieceCut kombu for dashi stock
  7. 1Sesame oil (or vegetable oil)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Remove any excess fat and sinew from the chicken thighs, and butterfly the thick parts so that it's an even thickness all over. Pierce the skin side several times with a fork.

  2. 2

    Heat some sesame oil in a frying pan, and fry the chicken until browned on both sides, especially the skin. When well browned, take out the chicken.

  3. 3

    Wipe excess oil in the frying pan. Add the sake, mirin, soy sauce, sugar and kombu, and put the chicken back into the pan.

  4. 4

    Put on a lid and simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes, turning the chicken occasionally. If the sauce is boiling too fast, lower the heat.

  5. 5

    Finsihed! Slice the chicken, pour over the sauce and enjoy. It's great over rice too.

  6. 6

    This is a tri-colored rice bowl that I prepared for my child. Cut the chicken into small pieces and combine with slightly sweetened scrambled eggs and blanched spinach over rice.
