Description

Chicken Katsu Musubi is a delightful blend of Japanese and Hawaiian culinary traditions, earning its popularity among food lovers everywhere. This savory dish marries crispy chicken katsu with sushi rice wrapped in seaweed, creating a portable snack that is both satisfying and flavorful.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 3 tablespoon ketchup
  • 2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon hot honey
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cup Japanese panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 sheets nori

Instructions

1. Trim any excess fat from the chicken thighs and slice into 3 equal pieces. Pound each piece to about 1/2 inch thickness.

2. Set up a breading station with flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and panko breadcrumbs in a third.

3. Dredge each piece of chicken in flour, dip in eggs, and coat with panko breadcrumbs.

4. Heat 2 inches of neutral oil in a pot to 350°F. Fry chicken pieces for 4 to 6 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

5. For the tonkatsu sauce, combine ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, and hot honey in a saucepan over low heat until sugar dissolves.

6. Assemble musubi by placing nori on a surface, adding seasoned sushi rice, a piece of chicken katsu, and folding nori over to seal.

7. Serve immediately with additional tonkatsu sauce for dipping.

Notes

For optimal frying, monitor oil temperature closely and avoid overcrowding the pan. Allow fried chicken to rest on a wire rack to maintain crispiness.
