Categories     main-dish

Time 6h35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup mochiko flour (Japanese sweet rice flour)
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup sugar
5 tablespoons soy sauce
2 eggs
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions, reserve some for garnish
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Oil, for frying
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds, optional

Steps:

  • Create the marinade by combining mochiko, cornstarch, sugar, soy sauce, eggs and green onions in a medium bowl. Make sure everything is blended. Cut chicken into bite-size pieces like nuggets, getting them as close to uniform in size as possible so they'll cook evenly when deep-frying.
  • Add chicken to the marinade and use your hands to massage the chicken pieces and make sure they're all coated by the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight.
  • Bring oil to 350 degrees F in a deep-fryer or Dutch oven.
  • Fry chicken in batches until crispy, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top, if using, and serve.

HAWAIIAN MOCHIKO CHICKEN



Hawaiian Mochiko Chicken image

This mochiko chicken is my daughter's favorite thing in the whole wide world. If you have never eaten mochiko chicken then you don't know what you been missing. This is a staple in many potlucks, tailgating and family gatherings. Mochiko is a Japanese sweet flour that makes a light batter. I make this for my family of 8 once a month. I have to triple the recipe and there is never leftovers.

  • Fold chicken into batter and let marinate in the refrigerator for 24 to a maximum of 48 hours.
  • Stir mochiko chicken batter every once in a while so that the flavor is evenly distributed.
  • For large batches (for parties) I marinate it for at least 24hrs in a large bowl or pot, then I double Ziploc bag it, in batches and store them in a cooler on ice until I'm ready to cook it.
  • When ready, Deepfry chicken for about 5 - 7 minutes or until dark golden brown and place in a pan lined with paper towels to drain the excess oil.
  • Garnish with chopped green onion and sesame seeds.
  • If using chicken breasts, cook for 3 to 4 minutes and serve hot, the chicken will be nice and tender.
