Instructions
- In a small saucepan, add the soy sauce, mirin, sake, water, and brown sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil then lower the heat and add in a cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce. Let the liquid simmer for 15-20 minutes until it’s thickened.
- Heat the oven to 400F.
- While the oven is heating, mix together the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, panko, parmesan cheese, and one egg (optional: drizzle of olive oil) together and then mix it into the ground chicken. Do not over mix.
- Shape the meatballs. As your meatballs will get denser as they cook, avoid overpacking/over-rolling your meat.
- On a sheet pan, place a piece of parchment paper or spray with non-stick, then place your meatballs on the sheet pan without over crowding them. Pop them into the oven for around 25 minutes or until they’re cooked through.
- Once the meatballs are done, coat the meatballs with the yakitori sauce.
- Serve with the side of your choice (I made rice) and set some sauce aside for dipping/to pour on the rice.
