Japanese Skewered Chicken

Yakitori skewers are one of my favorite Asian snacks! We prepare the chicken sous vide and then briefly grill it for a smoky flavor. They're also perfect for serving large groups.

Ingredients

• 600 g chicken thigh fillet
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 3 tbsp brown sugar
• 3 tbsp mirin
• 1 spring onion
• 1 red pepper (optional)
• sesame seeds (garnish)

Preparation

The preparation

Preheat the sous vide appliance to 65°C (149°F). Cut the chicken thigh into 1.5-2 cm pieces. Combine the sous sauce, brown sugar, and mirin. Finely chop a spring onion and add it to the marinade.

Yarn

Add the shredded chicken to a vacuum-sealed bag. Then pour the marinade into the bag. Cook for 2 hours at 65°C (149°F).

Grilling

After 2 hours, remove the bag from the water. Pour the liquid into a saucepan and let it thicken. Remove the chicken from the bag and skewer it. Heat a hot griddle and, in the meantime, thinly slice a red chili pepper. Once the pan is hot, cook the chicken for 1 minute per side. Serve the chicken skewers with the thickened sauce, red chili pepper, and sesame seeds.
