YAKITORI (JAPANESE SKEWERED CHICKEN)



Yakitori (Japanese Skewered Chicken) image

Yakitori is Japanese skewered chicken, cooked on a charcoal grill with either sweet soy sauce or just salt. You DO NOT marinate the chicken before cooking through. Yakitori is great for entertaining a big crowd as it is a kind of finger food. It is quite easy to make. (Watch the Video)In this recipe, I am sharing the two most common yakitori - negima (chicken and shallots/scallions yakitori) and momo (plain chicken thigh yakitori) with sweet soy sauce. I also included onion rings on skewers and bacon & asparagus on skewers.The recipe also includes different methods of grilling yakitori - on a yakitori grill/BBQ and using the oven grill/broiler.Cook time can vary a lot depending on how many skewers you can grill at once.

YAKITORI (JAPANESE CHICKEN SKEWERS)



Yakitori (Japanese Chicken Skewers) image

Yakitori is very popular in Japan: there are whole restaurants devoted to serving up variations of skewered grilled chicken. Now you can make it at home with an easy, flavorful recipe by Michael Ruhlman! Served with steamed rice, it's perfect for a satisfying weeknight dinner.

Provided by Michael Ruhlman

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cloves garlic
1-inch piece ginger
1/2 cup mirin
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1 bunch scallions
4 chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
1 tablespoon miso

Steps:

  • Marinade: Smash and peel garlic cloves, then place in a small saucepan. Slice unpeeled ginger into coins (about 5 slices); add to the saucepan, followed by the mirin, soy sauce, and honey. Over medium-high heat, bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent honey from burning; allow to simmer for about 1 minute. Set aside to cool by placing into a large skillet filled with cold water.
  • Trim root ends from scallions; then cut the white and light green parts into 1-inch pieces. (Reserve green stalks for garnish.) Set aside. Slice each chicken thigh into 4 equal pieces. If using skewers, thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers, alternating with pieces of scallion.
  • Place skewers on a rimmed baking sheet and pour marinade to coat chicken and scallions. Marinate for at least 30 minutes (and up to 3-4 hours), flipping the skewers in the marinade every 5-7 minutes. (Note: Chicken can be marinated the day before and stored, covered, in the refrigerator overnight.) While chicken marinates, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat grill pan over high heat, 5-10 minutes (time will vary, depending on pan). Reserving the marinade, place chicken skewers on the hot grill and cook for 2-3 minutes; place a heavy plate or skillet on the chicken and press down to create grill marks. Flip skewers and repeat, 2-3 more minutes. Place the chicken, still in the grill pan, in the oven and bake, 10 minutes. Meanwhile, finish the sauce.
  • Pour the marinade back into a saucepan and add the miso. Bring to a boil (which will kill off any bacteria from the raw chicken) and reduce slightly, 15 minutes. Meanwhile, remove grill pan from oven and transfer skewers to a plate. When the sauce has reduced, brush it over the chicken. Slice reserved scallion greens and sprinkle over the skewers before serving.

YAKITORI CHICKEN

Enjoy this deliciously sticky chicken made with a sauce of soy, mirin, sake and sugar as part of an easy Japanese banquet. Serve on bamboo skewers

Provided by Elena Silcock

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

100ml soy sauce
100ml mirin
50ml sake
2 tbsp caster sugar
500g boneless and skinless chicken thighs, chopped into 3cm chunks
4 spring onions , each cut into three
4 flat teppo gushi bamboo skewers (available from amazon.co.uk)

Steps:

  • Soak the skewers in a bowl of water while you prepare everything else, to prevent them from burning. Tip the soy, mirin, sake and sugar into a small saucepan, and cook over a medium heat for about 15 mins until the sauce is glossy.

CHICKEN ON A SKEWER (YAKITORI)

Provided by Madhur Jaffrey

Categories     Chicken     Poultry     Appetizer     Broil     Cocktail Party     Backyard BBQ     Dinner     Party     Soy Sauce     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 4 main course servings, or up to 8 with drinks

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 medium chicken legs (thighs and drumsticks), boned
1 large green bell pepper
8 tablespoons Japanese soy sauce (shoyu)
4 tablespoons sake
3 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Cut the boneless chicken leg meat into 1-inch chunks. If some skin separates from the meat, discard it; leave any skin that clings naturally. Halve, core and deseed the bell pepper, then cut it into 1-inch squares.
  • 2. Thread two pieces of meat on to a skewer followed by a piece of bell pepper. If you are preparing bamboo skewers, Japanese-style, push the meat to one end and keep alternating two pieces of meat with a piece of pepper until you have loaded about 3 inches of each skewer. If you are using long metal skewers, you can thread their entire length, leaving each end empty. Thread all the meat in this way, using as many skewers as required. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until needed.
  • 3. Meanwhile combine the soy sauce, sake, and sugar in a small pan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and heat gently until the sugar has dissolved.
  • 4. Preheat an indoor broiler or an outdoor charcoal grill. Position the skewers 4 to 5 inches from the heat source and grill for 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until the meat is three-quarters cooked. Brush with the sauce and grill briefly on both sides until the meat is almost done. Brush with the sauce a second time and grill for another 30 seconds on each side. Serve hot.

YAKITORI



Yakitori image

Yakitori is a classic, easy Japanese street food served on skewers. This version, known as Yakitori Negima, is made with chicken and green onion grilled on a charcoal grill for a light smoky flavor and brushed with a homemade sweet and salty yakitori sauce. They cook quickly so they are great for weekday grilling and make a fantastic dinner with rice and grilled veggies on the side, or just serve them as an appetizer like they do in Japan!

Provided by Amy Nash

Categories     Dinner

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup soy sauce
1 cup mirin
1/2 cup sake or dry sherry
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 garlic cloves (peeled and smashed)
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
Scallions (thinly sliced, for garnish)
2 pounds boneless (skinless chicken thigh meat)
2 bunches green onions
Kosher salt (to taste)

Steps:

  • Submerge wooden skewers in a large cup or shallow pan of water to soak for at least 30 minutes.
  • Combine soy sauce, mirin, sake, water, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and the green part of 2 green onions in a medium saucepan on the stovetop over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until reduced by about half and slightly thickened. It should continue to thicken as it cools. The sauce can be refrigerated for 2-3 months.
  • Slice the chicken into 1 1/2-inch pieces, trimming away excess fat if necessary. Slice green onions into 1 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Alternately thread pieces of chicken with pieces of green onion onto skewers that have been soaked in water for 30-60 minutes. You will likely need to fold the chicken a bit if using chicken thigh. Don't be afraid to load the skewers up pretty generously. Each skewer should hold 4 pieces of chicken and 3 green onion pieces. Season with kosher salt.
  • Prepare a charcoal grill for medium-high heat or preheat the broiler. Set aside 1/3 of the yakitori sauce to avoid contamination. Grill over direct heat or broil for 4-5 minutes, then flip and brush each skewer with some of the yakitori sauce. Cook another 4-5 minutes on the other side, then flip and brush with sauce again, cooking another 1-2 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is caramelized.
  • Transfer the finished skewers to a plate and brush with some of the reserved sauce before serving. You could also garnish by sprinkling the skewers with sesame seeds or thinly sliced green onions before serving.

CHICKEN HEART YAKITORI SKEWERS



Chicken Heart Yakitori Skewers image

Yakitori is Japanese for grilled chicken. A yakitori master can turn one chicken into 19 separate dishes. Heart is one of my faves because of its pleasantly chewy texture and flavor. Traditional grills use binchotan or Japanese charcoal, but you can use any indoor or outdoor grill. Look for Chinese chicken powder. Although it's similar to classic chicken bouillion, it doesn't have the herbs and spices that make it taste like European stock.

Time 40m

Yield 15 to 20 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup sake
1 1/2 cups high-quality soy sauce, such as Kikkoman Smooth Aromatic
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon Chinese chicken powder
3 scallions, trimmed and sliced into large pieces
One 3-inch piece fresh ginger, cut into large pieces
2 pounds chicken hearts, valves removed and hearts cut in half
2 bunches scallions, whites only, cut into 1 1/2-inch-wide pieces
1/2 cup each iodized salt and black pepper, combined in a shaker
Sansho and shichimi pepper, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the tare basting sauce: Heat a medium saucepan over high heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Carefully pour the sake into the pan away from you (it may ignite). Burn off some of the alcohol for about 30 seconds. Stir in the soy sauce, sugar, chicken powder, scallions and ginger and bring to the boil for about 1 minute, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Turn off the heat and evenly divide between 2 tall, heatproof containers like liquid measuring cups. (One will be for quickly marinating and another will be for basting.) Set aside.
  • For the yakitori: Skewer the heart halves on each of 20 skewers, alternating every 2 pieces of heart with a scallion piece.
  • Put the skewers in one of tare basting sauces while you heat the grill.
  • Load a konro grill with hot coals and heat until the coals burn white. Position the grate on top. Alternately, preheat a charcoal grill.
  • Remove the skewers from the basting sauce and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook the skewers on one side until light brown and slightly crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn over and repeat until the scallions are soft and the hearts are medium, 3 to 5 minutes. Dunk the skewers into the unused tare basting sauce just until the hearts are fully dipped. Drain and place back on the grill for 1 minute on each side. The sauce will caramelize, and the hearts will crisp on the edges.
  • Remove from the heat, then sprinkle on some sansho and shichimi and serve hot.

  • Soak the wooden skewers in some warm water for approx 30 mins (this will skewers prevent from burning)
  • Add the Tamari, rice vinegar, water, sugar, garlic and ginger to a small saucepan and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat slightly so that it gently bubbles and continue to heat the sauce until it starts to reduce down and go syrupy (this can take approx 12-15 minutes, ensure you keep an eye on it, as otherwise it can evaporate and burn quickly if you leave it unattended. The sauce won't go super thick, you want a syrup that can be brushed on the chicken so it coats it as you cook/grill it)
  • Once the wooden skewers have soaked for required time, add the chicken breast pieces to the skewers.
  • Heat a grill pan over a medium high heat, (or you can cook on a grill or barbecue) and spray with avocado spray oil
