MARINADES: This is my version of chicken yakitori that is popular in Japanese cuisine.

CHICKEN COOKED IN YAKITORI SAUCE:

 

 

 

1 cup sake                                                                  

2/3 cup crushed rock sugar

2/3 cup mirin or Japanese rice wine                            

1 ½ cups dark soy sauce

½ cup light soy sauce

 

 

Mix ingredients in a saucepan over low heat. Cook to melt sugar and bring to a boil. Simmer 15-20 minutes to develop flavour. Cool and refrigerate.

 

Use sauce to marinate chicken pieces for at least 3 hours or in refrigerator over night. Put chicken pieces on bamboo skewers and grill them in a preheated hibachi grill until cooked.
