Instructions
Teriyaki Sauce
- Place all the teriyaki sauce ingredients into a small saucepan. Place over high and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Chicken Skewers (Yakitori)
- Soak 8-10 medium-sized bamboo skewers in cold water for 10 minutes. This will prevent them from burning or charring.
- Spear the chicken and spring onion (scallion) onto the soaked skewers and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high. Once hot, add the skewers, cover with a lid and sear for 3 minutes on both sides. Do this in batches.
- Add all the chicken skewers to the pan (overcrowding doesn't matter now) and pour in the teriyaki sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until thick, rotating the skewers in the sauce.
Carrot & Parsnip Stir Fry
- Toast the sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat for 2 minutes or until golden and fragrant. Remove.
- Add the peanut oil, carrots, and parsnips in the same pan or wok over high heat and stir fry for 2 minutes. Add the soy sauce and mirin and cook for 2 minutes or until the sauce has reduced. Turn the heat off and add the sesame oil and sesame seeds; mix well and remove from the stovetop.
Serving
- Place the stir fry on a plate or in a bowl, and place the chicken yakitori over the top. Alternatively, serve the stir fry on the side with the chicken yakitori. Garnish with spring onion (scallion). Dig in.
