A recipe that comes straight from Japan and is part of the yakitori family, i.e. skewers where each piece is the size of a bite, and which are traditionally made with chicken.
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Difficulty: easy
Yield: 4 servings
For the chicken bites
For the yakitori sauce
Finely chop the chicken and mix it with the rest of the ingredients to obtain a homogeneous paste.
Form balls the size of a golf ball.
Combine all sauce ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer to dilute the sugar. Continue to cook until the sauce thickens.
Cook the balls in a large frying pan with a little fat for about 15-20 minutes so that they are nicely browned (for air-fryer cooking is 10 minutes at 400°F-200°C).
Arrange balls on skewers.
Brush the balls with the yakitori sauce, sprinkle with the green part of the green onion and white sesame seeds.
Serve with rice for example.
