Chicken Thigh Saute with Nuts, Garlic, Butter, & Soy Sauce

  1. I used one 260 g chicken thigh.
  2. Cut into bite-sized pieces and lightly season with salt.
  3. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes to allows the salt to blend in.
  4. Place the nuts in a plastic baggie and use a rolling pin to crush them.
  5. You could also use a mortar and pestle and grind them into whatever size you want.
  6. Mince the garlic.
  7. Place the chicken with the skin side down in a non-oiled Teflon frying pan.
  8. Cook on medium-high heat until crisply browned.
  9. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover with a lid, and slowly cook for 3-5 minutes.
  10. Remove the lid and flip over the chicken.
  11. Sprinkle in 1 tablespoon of sake and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  12. 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).
  13. Remove the chicken and place on a plate.
  14. Add the garlic, butter, soy sauce, mirin, and crushed nuts to the frying pan from Step 6.
  15. Stir everything together.
  16. Turn the heat to medium-low and cook until bubbly.
  17. Return the chicken to pan and lightly mix everything together to finish.
