Yakitori is a Japanese grilled chicken skewer that makes a great party appetizer-on-a-stick and goes well with Japanese beer. Ingredients:
6 green onions |
1/2 cup teriyaki marinade and sauce (we tested with kikkoman) |
1 1/2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger |
2 large garlic cloves, pressed |
1 tablespoon sugar |
2 tablespoons dark sesame oil |
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1 |
Directions:
1. Cut white and pale green parts of green onions into 1 1/2 pieces. Thinly slice dark green onion tops. Set aside. 2. Combine marinade, ginger, garlic, sugar, and sesame oil in a zip-top plastic freezer bag; add chicken and 1 1/2 green onion pieces, turning to coat. Seal and chill for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours. 3. Meanwhile, soak 8 (6 ) wooden skewers in water to cover for 30 minutes. Drain. 4. Thread marinated chicken and green onion pieces onto skewers, discarding marinade. Grill over medium-high heat (350° to 400°) for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until chicken is done. 5. Transfer skewers to an appetizer platter, and sprinkle with thinly sliced green onions. |
