Instructions
- Find the line running down the middle of the 400 grams boneless skinless chicken breast and separate it into two pieces.
- Look for how the meat fibers run through the large piece of breast and cut it where the fibers change direction.
- Now, you can cut each piece against the grain into ⅓-inch thick slices.
- Add the chicken to a bowl with 1 tablespoon sake, ½ teaspoon grated ginger, and ⅛ teaspoon salt. Mix to combine. Add 2 teaspoons potato starch and work it in so each piece has an even coating of starch.
- To make the teriyaki sauce, add 2 tablespoons sake, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon sugar to a bowl and mix until the sugar has dissolved.
- Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and chicken in a single layer, starting with the larger pieces.
- When you're done adding the chicken, start flipping them over, starting with the pieces you added first.
- When the chicken is mostly cooked (it doesn't need to be fully cooked), wipe out any excess oil with a paper towel and then add the teriyaki sauce.
- Flip the teriyaki chicken pieces repeatedly until they're coated in a thick glaze.
- Pack the teriyaki chicken into a bento box along with 1 batch cooked Japanese short-grain rice, and some side dishes.
