Yakitori

Ingredients - Serves 4

Let's Get Started

  1. Soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and sake. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes.
  3. Cut the chicken thighs into 1-inch pieces and thread onto the skewers, alternating with pieces of green onion.
  4. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  5. Grill the skewers, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the onions are tender, about 10-15 minutes.
  6. Brush the skewers with the sauce and grill for an additional 1-2 minutes on each side.
  7. Serve the yakitori with the remaining sauce on the side for dipping.
