Recipe Summary Chicken Karaage (Japanese Fried Chicken)

This is a simple yet delicious Japanese-style fried chicken flavored with ginger, garlic and sake and soy sauce. Serve as an appetizer or with rice and veggies to make a yummy meal. It even tastes good cold; my mom used to make this to take with us on picnics.

Ingredients | 365 Chicken And Fries Watergardens

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon sake (Japanese rice wine)

2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger

1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces

2 cups vegetable oil for frying

¾ cup cornstarch

Directions

Combine soy sauce, sake, and ginger in a large bowl. Add chicken; turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in the refrigerator, about 30 minutes.

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Place cornstarch in a large resealable plastic bag. Add chicken; seal bag and toss until chicken is coated with cornstarch.

Fry chicken in batches until juices run clear and it is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels or on a wire rack.

Make sure you use regular rice wine (sake), not sweet rice wine (mirin) or rice vinegar.

We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. Amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used.
