Direction

  1. [Teriyaki chicken] Remove the skin from the chicken, remove excess stringy and fatty parts, and marinate the chicken in ☆.
  2. After a while, dust with potato starch and fry in an oiled frying pan. Cook on one side over medium heat for 4 minutes, then reduce heat when browned. Add a little sake (or white wine), cover and steam over low heat for 5 minutes.
  3. Turn chicken over and steam over low heat for 4 minutes. Take out the chicken once, turn the heat off, and add ★ in the frying pan. (Use the juices from the chicken as is.)
  4. Bring the sauce to a light simmer, add the chicken and toss the chicken with the sauce.
  5. [Mixed rice] Rinse rice clean and drain in a colander. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces, and marinate the chicken in ◇.
  6. Put the drained rice, water, and ◆ into a big pot. Stir well, and add thinly sliced carrot. Spread the carrot evenly, then spread the chicken evenly on top of the carrots.
  7. Cover and bring to a boil. Once boiling is confirmed, reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. When there is a slight smell of burning and the water in the pot is completely gone, it is done. Add corn and mix to taste.
