Ingredients (serves 2)
1 chicken breast (approx. 250–300g)
1/2 onion (cut into wedges)
1 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tbsp all-purpose flour (cake flour)
2 tsp vegetable oil
[A] 1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
[A] 1 1/2 tbsp mirin
[A] 1 tbsp sake
[A] 2 tsp grated ginger
[A] 1 tsp sugar
Instructions
① Remove the skin from the chicken breast. Slice it diagonally (against the grain) into 1–1.5 cm thick pieces. Place the chicken in a bowl, add the mayonnaise, and massage it in until well coated. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, then dust evenly with the all-purpose flour.
② Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Arrange the chicken pieces in the pan and cook for 2–3 minutes. Once browned, flip the chicken over, add the onion wedges to the empty space in the pan, and sauté for another 3–4 minutes. Once the chicken is cooked through and the onion has softened, add the combined ingredients [A]. Cook over medium-low heat for 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats everything—it’s ready!
