- 13 cup water

- In a deep, straight sided saute pan, heat about 1/4 inch vegetable oil over medium high heat until the oil ripples and simmers in the pan and instantly erupts into lots of bubbles when you dip a corner of the chicken breast into it.
- Immediately reduce the heat to medium low and fry the chicken in batches until cooked through and golden on both sides, 4 to 6 minutes per side.
- If the oil seems to cool down to much during frying, increase the heat a little to maintain a steady bubbling action.
- Drain the chicken on paper towels and serve it with abundant shredded cabbage and tonkatsu sauce.
- tonkatsu sauce: In a small saucepan, whisk together the Worcestershire, sugar, soy sauce and ketchup.
