Ingredients
- 4 chicken thighs (200 g, skinlessly and Bonelessly cut into small cubes)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dashi stock powder
- Vegetable oil for deep-frying
Directions
-
Start by preparing the chicken. Cut the chicken thighs into small cubes to make them more fun for the kids.
-
In a shallow bowl, mix the cornstarch and cold water until combined, then add the soy sauce, ginger, garlic powder, and dashi stock powder. Give the mixture a good stir and let it sit until you’re ready to use it.
-
Add the cubed chicken into the marinade and coat with the sauce. Let the chicken marinate for about 10 minutes.
-
Heat up a large pot or pan of vegetable oil on medium-high heat.
-
Carefully add the chicken cubes to the whet oil, making sure not to splatter the oil.
-
Fry the chicken cubes for about 5–10 minutes until golden and crisp on the outside.
-
Use a skimmer spoon to remove the chicken from the pot. Place the chicken on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
-
Now it’s time to eat! Serve the chicken karaage hot with rice and a side of veggies, if you want.
