Quick & Easy Skewer-Free Yakitori with Japanese Leek

I was trying to think of a recipe to use chicken. I didn't feel like making fried chicken or chicken steak... so I went with yakitori!
I recommend shaking the pan instead of using a spatula in Step 5, because the Japanese leek falls apart easily. For 2-3 servings. Recipe by *Anna*

Easy Yakitori at Home Easy Yakitori at Home
My family loves yakitori. Since there are lots of hungry boys in my family, it can get expensive to eat out. That's why we try to make it at home.Please adjust the sweetness of the sauce. When the chicken is freshly cooked, dip in the sauce. It prevents the chicken from getting dry. The oil that drips off the chicken when you dip the skewers in it gradually adds flavor to the sauce. You can pour the leftover sauce on top later, use it for a stir-fry, or pour it over rice. For 30 skewers. Recipe by Keikunno okusan cookpad.japan -

My family says "It looks more like the real thing if it's on a skewer..." but as the person making it, this is way easier!If it's easy, I'll be made more often, so they'll have to live with the lack of skewers.I do occasionally skewer the meat the proper way though.If you grill the chicken for too long, it will get tough, so just cook it enough.Adjust the amount of katakuriko to make the sauce as thick as you like.(If you think it needs to be thicker, put it back in the frying pan with katakuriko dissolved in water and adjust.) For 4 servings. Recipe by Hokkori-no cookpad.japan -
