- 2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
- 1 clove garlic peeled and grated
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) sake
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) mirin
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 cup (125 grams) potato starch
- vegetable oil for deep frying
Rice Bowl:
- Steamed Japanese short grain rice
- 1/4 green cabbage thinly shredded
- Japanese mayonnaise for drizzling
- 2-4 shishito peppers roasted or pan-fried
- 1 lemon cut into wedges
- 2 green onions thinly sliced
- shichimi togarashi to taste
Instructions
To make the Karaage (Fried Chicken):
- Cut the chicken thighs into 2 inch (5 centimeter) pieces.
- In a large bowl, combine the ginger, garlic, sake, soy sauce, mirin, and sesame oil.
- Add the chicken to the bowl and toss well to thoroughly coat in the sauce. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
- In a large wok, bring 2 inches (5 centimeters) of vegetable oil to medium high heat. Once heated and shimmering, reduce heat to medium.
- Place the potato starch in a medium bowl. Remove a chicken piece from the marinade and thoroughly coat in the potato starch.
- Gently place the coated chicken piece in the hot oil and repeat with remaining pieces. Take care not to overcrowd the pan and cook the chicken in batches if needed.
- Fry for 2 1/2-3 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the chicken and drain on paper towel-lined plate. Remove any pieces of batter between batches of chicken.
To assemble the rice bowl:
- Fill four bowls with desired amount of steamed rice.
- Cover the rice with a layer of shredded cabbage.
- Top with the fried chicken pieces, then add a drizzle of mayonnaise.
- Serve immediately with desired toppings such as shishito peppers, lemon wedges, green onions, and shichimi togarashi to taste.
