Step 1
Poke holes all over the chicken breast with a fork.
Step 2
Cut the rounded part of the chicken breast (3-4cm), separate along the vertical muscle fibers, and slice into bite-sized pieces against the grain.
Step 3
Sprinkle sugar (1 tsp) over the chicken breast and rub it in well.
Step 4
Place the chicken into a plastic bag, add grated ginger (1/2 tsp), grated garlic (1/2 tsp), sake (1 tbsp), and soy sauce (1 tsp), then massage well and marinate for 30 minutes.
Step 5
Remove the stem from the eggplants and cut them into irregular bite-sized pieces (rangiri).
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Slicing the chicken breast against the grain ensures it remains moist and tender without drying out. 💡
Rubbing the sugar in first increases the chicken's moisture-retaining ability. 💡
Placing the eggplant skin-side down first keeps it vibrant in color and prevents it from absorbing too much oil. ⚠️
Wiping away excess oil before adding the sauce ensures a clean, savory flavor and helps the sauce coat the ingredients better. 🔥
