Savory Grilled Chicken Yakitori Skewers with Sweet Soy Glaze

Chicken Yakitori

Ingredients:

• 250 grams chicken fillet, cut into cubes
• 3 stalks green onions, cut into 2 cm pieces
• Skewers, as needed

For the Yakitori Sauce:

• 50 ml mirin
• 50 ml sake
• 50 ml soy sauce
• 50 ml water
• 3 tablespoons palm sugar

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Yakitori Sauce:

   • In a small saucepan, combine mirin, sake, soy sauce, water, and palm sugar. Stir well.
   • Place the saucepan over low heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally. Allow it to simmer until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.

2. Assemble the Skewers:

   • Thread the chicken fillet cubes and green onion pieces alternately onto the skewers.

3. Grill the Skewers:

   • Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.
   • Place the skewers on the grill and cook, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred, about 8-10 minutes.

4. Apply the Sauce:

   • Brush the cooked skewers with the prepared yakitori sauce.
   • Continue to grill for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to caramelize and infuse the chicken with flavor.

5. Serve:

   • Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
   • Serve the yakitori with any remaining sauce on the side for dipping.
