Sposób przygotowania
Krok po kroku
- 1
Combine the chicken pieces in a medium bowl with the soy sauce, sake, grated ginger, grated garlic, sugar, and black pepper. Mix well to coat all the chicken.
Około 2 min
- 2
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to several hours, allowing the chicken to marinate.
Około 30 min
Wskazówka kucharza: For deeper flavor, marinate overnight.
- 3
Pour the potato starch into a shallow dish or plate.
Około 1 min
- 4
Working in batches, remove chicken pieces from the marinade, letting excess liquid drip off, then dredge each piece thoroughly in the potato starch, ensuring it is fully coated.
Około 5 min
Wskazówka kucharza: Press the starch onto the chicken to create a thick, even coating.
- 5
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 170°C (340°F).
Około 5 min
Wskazówka kucharza: Use a thermometer to ensure the oil maintains the correct temperature for even cooking and crispiness.
- 6
Carefully add a single layer of chicken pieces to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for 3-4 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Około 4 min
Wskazówka kucharza: Overcrowding the pot will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy chicken.
- 7
Remove the cooked chicken with a slotted spoon or spider and transfer to a wire rack set over a baking sheet to drain excess oil.
Około 1 min
Wskazówka kucharza: A wire rack helps keep the chicken crispy by allowing air circulation.

Repeat with the remaining chicken pieces, adjusting oil temperature as needed between batches.
