Provided by Michael Ruhlman

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cloves garlic
1-inch piece ginger
1/2 cup mirin
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1 bunch scallions
4 chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
1 tablespoon miso

Steps:

  • Marinade: Smash and peel garlic cloves, then place in a small saucepan. Slice unpeeled ginger into coins (about 5 slices); add to the saucepan, followed by the mirin, soy sauce, and honey. Over medium-high heat, bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent honey from burning; allow to simmer for about 1 minute. Set aside to cool by placing into a large skillet filled with cold water.
  • Trim root ends from scallions; then cut the white and light green parts into 1-inch pieces. (Reserve green stalks for garnish.) Set aside. Slice each chicken thigh into 4 equal pieces. If using skewers, thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers, alternating with pieces of scallion.
  • Place skewers on a rimmed baking sheet and pour marinade to coat chicken and scallions. Marinate for at least 30 minutes (and up to 3-4 hours), flipping the skewers in the marinade every 5-7 minutes. (Note: Chicken can be marinated the day before and stored, covered, in the refrigerator overnight.) While chicken marinates, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat grill pan over high heat, 5-10 minutes (time will vary, depending on pan). Reserving the marinade, place chicken skewers on the hot grill and cook for 2-3 minutes; place a heavy plate or skillet on the chicken and press down to create grill marks. Flip skewers and repeat, 2-3 more minutes. Place the chicken, still in the grill pan, in the oven and bake, 10 minutes. Meanwhile, finish the sauce.
  • Pour the marinade back into a saucepan and add the miso. Bring to a boil (which will kill off any bacteria from the raw chicken) and reduce slightly, 15 minutes. Meanwhile, remove grill pan from oven and transfer skewers to a plate. When the sauce has reduced, brush it over the chicken. Slice reserved scallion greens and sprinkle over the skewers before serving.

JAPANESE CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH SCALLION (NEGIMA YAKITORI) RECIPE



Japanese Chicken Skewers With Scallion (Negima Yakitori) Recipe image

For my money, the easiest and most forgiving yakitori staple is negima: juicy chicken thigh alternately threaded onto a skewer with sections of scallion. Because thighs are naturally high in connective tissue and fat, they end up juicy even if you don't precisely measure temperature as they cook.

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 pounds (1kg) boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch dice
Kosher salt and freshly ground white or black pepper
1 bunch scallions, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup (120ml) teriyaki sauce (see note)

Steps:

  • Light 2/3 chimney full of charcoal. When all the charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and arrange the coals on one side of the charcoal grate. Set cooking grate in place, cover grill, and allow to preheat for 5 minutes. Alternatively, set half the burners on a gas grill to medium-high heat setting, cover, and preheat for 10 minutes. Clean and oil the grilling grate.

YAKITORI (GRILLED CHICKEN KEBABS)



Yakitori (Grilled Chicken Kebabs) image

Yakitori is chicken and various other things (mainly chicken, as tori means chicken) skewered, brushed with a sweetish sauce, and grilled to perfection. My version utilizes a simplified sauce and is cooked under the broiler, although it can be grilled, too. Yakitori is best eaten fresh while still very hot. Try with a Japanese beer, if you drink beer. I like to serve it as a meal, but it's intended to be more of a snack. Besides the kebab ingredients here, you can also use chicken gizzards or livers, wing drummettes, little meatballs of minced chicken, shitake mushrooms, bell peppers, or gingko nuts. The skewers should be quite small--just enough for a bite or two each.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 45m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

7 tablespoons sake
3/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons mirin
2 tablespoons sugar
2 lbs boneless chicken thighs
5 thin leeks or 7 -8 green onions
short bamboo skewer, soaked in water

Steps:

  • To make sauce, combine all ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and set aside.
  • To prepare kebabs, cut thigh meat into bite-sized pieces. Cut thick parts of onions into 1-inch pieces, discarding the leaves. (See comments for additional suggestions for skewers.).
  • Thread pieces of chicken and onion alternately onto skewers, just 1-2 of each per skewer.
  • Dip each skewer into the sauce until well coated; place on a broiling pan.
  • Brush with additional sauce, and place under hot broiler, about 4-6 inches from heat.
  • Broil until the sauce begins to blacken around high points of skewers, about 4-5 minutes.
  • Brush again with sauce, flip and brush other side. Continue broiling for another 4-5 minutes or until just starting to char.
  • Repeat if necessary until chicken is cooked through.
  • Serve immediately. Discard any remaining sauce.

YAKITORI (GRILLED CHICKEN SKEWERS)



Yakitori (Grilled Chicken Skewers) image

Yakitori is Japanese skewered and grilled chicken that can use approximately 30 different chicken parts, from momo, or chicken thigh, to nankotsu, or chicken cartilage. This recipe calls for marinating chicken thighs, gizzards and livers in a savory-sweet sauce of ginger, sake, mirin, soy sauce, garlic and a touch of brown sugar, grilling or broiling, then scattering with chopped scallions. Serve it alongside something fresh and green, like a cucumber salad, and a pile of rice.

YAKITORI CHICKEN



Yakitori chicken image

Enjoy this deliciously sticky chicken made with a sauce of soy, mirin, sake and sugar as part of an easy Japanese banquet. Serve on bamboo skewers

Provided by Elena Silcock

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

100ml soy sauce
100ml mirin
50ml sake
2 tbsp caster sugar
500g boneless and skinless chicken thighs, chopped into 3cm chunks
4 spring onions , each cut into three
4 flat teppo gushi bamboo skewers (available from amazon.co.uk)

Steps:

  • Soak the skewers in a bowl of water while you prepare everything else, to prevent them from burning. Tip the soy, mirin, sake and sugar into a small saucepan, and cook over a medium heat for about 15 mins until the sauce is glossy.
  • Remove the skewers from the water and thread each one with a piece of chicken, followed by a piece of spring onion. Repeat twice more so the skewer is well stacked. Fill all four skewers.
  • Heat a large frying pan over a medium heat - you want to cook the chicken fairly gently so it soaks up the sauce. Put the skewers in the pan, then brush with the sauce. Cook for 10 mins, turning regularly and brushing in all the sauce. Serve immediately.
