Very Juicy Chicken Karaage
- 450 grams Chicken thighs
- 3 tbsp * Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp * Mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp * Sake
- 1/2 tbsp * Sesame oil
- 2 1/2 tsp * Grated ginger
- 2 1/2 tsp * Grated garlic
- 200 ml Flour
- 1 Egg
- 4 tbsp Water
- 1 Salt
- 1 Black pepper
- 1 All Spice (optional)
- 1 Frying oil
- Cut the chicken thigh into bite-sized pieces.
- Combine the * ingredients and add to Step 1.
- Quickly massage the mixture into the meat, and if possible, let it marinate for a while.
- I let it marinate for about 3 hours.
- Combine the ingredients.
- Add just the chicken (leave the marinade) from Step 2 into the mixture from Step 3 and stir.
- Heat some oil over medium heat.
- Add the Step 4 meat coated in the mixture to the frying pan with your hand.
- Deep-fry for 1-2 minutes and remove it.
- Let it rest on a paper towel.
- Let the residual heat cook the meat through.
- After some time, raise the oil temperature to high, and use long cooking chopsticks to add the meat and stir it around while deep-frying, until a nicely browned color.
- Then it's done.
- The outside is crisp and the center is juicy.
- After Step 4, if you mix flour and katakuriko at a ratio of 1:1 and coat the chicken, it will turn out even crispier and crunchier.
- For those of you who like karaage crisp and crunchy, if you have the time you should definitely try this method.
