Air fryer Chicken Karaage (Japanese Fried Chicken)

• portions: 3 servings
• temps actif: 14 minutes
• temps total: 30 minutes

Ingrédients

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs (cut into 1 inch pieces)

¼ cup sake

2 tablespoons soy sauce (light sodium)

2 teaspoons ginger (grated)

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon granulated sugar

¾ cup potato starch

Cooking spray (any neutral oil spray with high smoke point is fine)

Kewpie mayo

Shichimi togarashi

Lemon (cut into wedges)

Instructions

Place the chicken thigh, sake, soy sauce, grated ginger, salt, and sugar into a glass mixing bowl and mix well. Cover and allow the chicken to marinate at least 1 hour on the kitchen counter, but best overnight in the fridge.

Generously spray the bottom of the air fryer basket with cooking spray.

Coat each piece of marinated chicken well with potato starch. Make sure to allow the excess marinate drip off before putting the chicken in the potato starch.

Arrange the dredged chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket and spray the top of the chicken generously with cooking spray. DO NOT overlap!

Air fryer the chicken karaage at 375°F for 8 minutes without flipping. Then flip each piece of chicken and spray the top with cooking spray. Air fry for another 8 minute at 400°F without flipping.

Remove the chicken karaage and enjoy while hot by itself or with a spritz of lemon and some kewpie mayo topped with togarashi.
