KARAAGE (JAPANESE FRIED CHICKEN) WITH HONEY MAYOSTER SAUCE
Very easy to make and my guests enjoy it a lot! It can be served as an appetizer, or over a bed of rice as a quick weekday dinner! I usually marinate the night before to give it more flavor, but if it's a last-minute meal you are preparing, no worries, because there's still dipping sauce! Serve hot with shredded lettuce and a lemon wedge.

JAPANESE FRIED CHICKEN (CHICKEN KARAAGE)
Steps:
- Rinse the chicken, cut off any excess fat and pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. Using a sharp knife, score the chicken, especially in fibrous parts of the meat. Use the point of the knife to poke small holes in the chicken, then cut the chicken in bite-size (1 1/2-inch) pieces.
- In a mixing bowl combine the chicken, sake, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, soy sauce and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix well, rubbing the marinade into the chicken. Marinate for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- Add the egg slowly to the chicken while mixing with your hands. Add the cornstarch and lightly toss to coat the chicken. In a medium saucepan heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer reads 335 degrees F. Fry the chicken, a few pieces at a time, until golden brown, about 10 minutes (the internal temperature of the meat should be 165 degrees F). Shake off any excess grease. Cool and reserve the oil for another use. Plate the chicken and garnish with lemon wedges to serve.

Steps:
- Cut chicken meat into a bite sized pieces.
- Sprinkle a teaspoon of salt and a tablespoon of Japanese Sake on the meats, knead them, and leave it about 30 minutes.
- Sop up the Sake with paper towels and put the meats, all spices, and flour into a plastic bag.
- Knead the plastic bag until all spices and flour cover all meats.
- Fill a pan with vegetable oil for deep frying and heat it up with middle flame. When the pan is heated up enough, put the meats into the pan.
- If your pan is big enough(about 30 cm diameter), you can put them all at once (Don't put only a few pieces; it will make only the surface of meat char).
- Notes: If you see bubbles as soon as you put a wooden chop stick into the oil, this is too hot. If you see them after 2 seconds, it's just the right temperature. After deep-frying the meat about 7~8 minutes, make the flame stronger.
- When the chicken fried beautifully brown, take them out of the pan onto paper towels.
- In addition If you sprinkle lemon juice on the chicken, it tastes better.

Tips:
- To ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C) before serving.
- For a crispier coating, double-coat the chicken in the flour mixture. First, coat the chicken in the flour mixture, then dip it in the egg mixture, and then coat it in the flour mixture again.
- If you don't have panko breadcrumbs, you can use regular breadcrumbs. However, panko breadcrumbs will give the chicken a lighter and crispier coating.
- To make the honey-mayoster sauce, you can use either Japanese mayonnaise or regular mayonnaise. Japanese mayonnaise is sweeter and tangier than regular mayonnaise, so it will give the sauce a more authentic flavor.
- Serve the karaage immediately with the honey-mayoster sauce, lemon wedges, and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
Conclusion:
Karaage is a delicious and easy-to-make Japanese fried chicken dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal or snack. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, sake, and ginger, then coated in panko breadcrumbs and fried until golden brown. The honey-mayoster sauce is the perfect dipping sauce for the karaage, and it adds a sweet and tangy flavor that complements the chicken perfectly. Whether you're serving karaage as an appetizer, main course, or snack, it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
