Chicken Karaage

Chicken karage is super crispy chicken which is japanese origin.

What is Chicken Karaage?

Karaage (唐揚げ, 空揚げ, or から揚げ, [kaɾa aɡe]) is a Japanese cooking technique in which various foods—most often chicken, but also other meat and fish—are deep fried in oil. The process involves lightly coating small pieces of the meat or fish with flour, or potato or corn starch, and frying in a light oil. The foods are marinated prior to coating. The process differs from the preparation of tempura, which is not marinated and uses a batter for coating. Karaage is often served alone or with rice and shredded cabbage.

Key Ingredients for Karaage

1. Chicken

In Japan, Karaage is typically made with skin-on boneless chicken thighs, which has more flavor than chicken breasts. But you can use chicken breast.

2. Marinade

There are so many variations of marinade/seasonings available for Karaage, The main flavouring for karage is soy sauce, ginger, rice vinegar.

If you have you sake, add a dash of it.

Some variations for the seasonings include:

  • garlic
  • sesame oil
  • mirin
  • oyster sauce
  • curry powder

3. Coating

  • All Purpose Flour
  • Potato starch
  • Flour + potato starch

In this recipe, I use all purpose flour in the chicken. And i coated the chicken in cornflour.

4. Deep-Frying Oil

  • Canola oil
  • Safflower oil
  • Rice bran oilChicken Karaage
