Steps to make Yakitori (Japanese-Style Satay):
- Cube chicken tenders. Slice leeks to 1-1.5cm width. Skewer them and set aside. (I put them in the fridge for a bit)
- Heat shoyu, mirin, sugar in a pan in low setting. Stir until sugar dissolves. Let simmer for about 5 minutes.
- You can cool it and keep it in the fridge for about a week. Or use it right away.
- Pour oil into a pan. Pour shoyu mixture to the satays, just enough to coat them. Use medium heat. Rotate the satays and pour more shoyu mixture, about 1 tsp per batch of four or five.
- Cover the pan and lower the heat. When the sauce is bubbly, rotate the satays. When the sauce is caramelized, yakitori is ready!
