I added peanuts because they help prevent anemia, rejuvenate blood flow, and lower cholesterol. This sauce can be used with chicken or fish. This has been a standard all-purpose sauce in our home for more than 10 years.

Since chicken thighs have a lot of grease, you don't need to use oil in the frying pan if you have a Teflon type non-stick pan. This will help the surfaces become nice and crispy.

At the end, you can adjust the flavors until it becomes the taste you want. For about 2 servings. Recipe by soyumina

  2. 10 gramsPeanuts (or cashews, walnuts, etc.)
  3. 1/2 tbsp■Butter
  4. 1/2 tbsp■Soy sauce
  5. 1/2 tbsp■Mirin
  6. 1 clove■Garlic (minced)
  7. 1 dashSalt
  8. 1 tbspSake

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    I used one 260 g chicken thigh. Cut into bite-sized pieces and lightly season with salt. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes to allows the salt to blend in.

  2. 2

    Place the nuts in a plastic baggie and use a rolling pin to crush them. You could also use a mortar and pestle and grind them into whatever size you want.

  3. 3

    Mince the ■ garlic.

  4. 4

    Place the chicken with the skin side down in a non-oiled Teflon frying pan. Cook on medium-high heat until crisply browned.

  5. 5

    Lower the heat to medium-low, cover with a lid, and slowly cook for 3-5 minutes. Remove the lid and flip over the chicken. Sprinkle in 1 tablespoon of sake and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

  6. 6

    Once the chicken has been cooked through, flip it over and cook the skin side one more time on high heat to really make it crispy (about 1-2 minutes). Remove the chicken and place on a plate.

  7. 7

    Add the ■ garlic, butter, soy sauce, mirin, and crushed nuts to the frying pan from Step 6. Stir everything together.

  8. 8

    Turn the heat to medium-low and cook until bubbly. Return the chicken to pan and lightly mix everything together to finish.
