Yakitori of chicken legs

Description

Yakitori is a traditional Japanese skewers of chicken. They can be cooked from different parts of the chicken including offal. In my opinion the most juicy turn skewers of chicken thighs and legs, them I propose to your attention along with a side dish of Japanese rice. The cooking process is simplified very much with the sauce Kikkoman, and the result will please both lovers of Japanese cuisine, and those who are with her not yet encountered.

1 kg
Sauce-marinade

5 Tbsp
Figure

150 g
Vinegar

2 Tbsp
Green onions

1 coup
Vegetable oil

1 Tbsp

Cooking

To prepare the products. Chicken legs wash and dry.

Separate the meat from the bones. To do this, make an incision along the leg and cutting the meat with a knife to pull it from the bone down to the base. At the base to cut across. Ready to "fillet" to cut off all the extra trim and remove the tendons - they are easily pulled. * Yakitori chicken will be noticeably drier, so do not be lazy to remove the meat from the legs, moreover, this process takes no more than 10 minutes per kg. feet.

The separated meat slice into squares roughly the same size (1,5x1,5 cm). * The seeds can be saved for soup stock.

For the marinade yakitori need to mix soy sauce or teriyaki with rice vinegar, sake and sugar/honey or glucose syrup. Fortunately, the company Kikkoman has already done it for us. So to the meat, simply add 5 tablespoons of the marinade "yakitori" from Kikkoman and leave a good promarinovatsya.

Bamboo sticks soak in cold water.

For garnish cook rice, suitable for Japanese food. * I use rice varieties Nishiki. He is short and round, great for sushi and Japanese dishes. Rice add water in a ratio of 1 to 1.3 and bring to boil, reduce heat, cover and cook for about 10-12 minutes, then turn off the heat, cover the pot with lid with a towel and leave the rice to "reach" for another 15 minutes.

Cooked rice cool slightly and fill with filling for sushi Kikkoman, stirring (as if cutting the rice) with a wooden spatula. Keep warm. * By the way, anyone have homemade sushi can not be obtained similar in taste to the restaurant - be sure to purchase the dressing from Kikkoman is one of the "secret" ingredients that is able to "elevate" homemade sushi and bring them to the taste of these.

Green onions cut into 2-3 cm long feathers

Thread the chicken pieces on skewers, alternating with pieces of green onions.

The resulting kebabs roast on the grill/in the pan, greased with vegetable oil or grill in oven on all sides until tender and a noticeable Browning.

In the process of roasting skewers, brush with remaining marinade, turning once on each side. Sugar and glucose syrup, included in the marinade to form a nice shiny brown crust on the meat.

The rice, pour soy sauce, sprinkle with green onions and sesame seeds and serve as a side dish to the hot kebabs.

Additionally you can serve yakitori sauce in which to dip the prepared kebabs. * For fans - such wonderful work skewers of chicken hearts.
