Categories     Chicken

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 Tbsp garlic salt
1/2 c flour
2 eggs, beaten
2 c panko bread crumbs
2 c cooking oil
1/3 c ketchup
1/4 c soy sauce
1/4 c sugar
1 1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Flatten chicken pieces into 1/4 inch thick pieces.
  • 2. Season chicken generously with garlic salt, ( season to taste) and let stand 15 to 30 minutes.
  • 3. Set up three dredging pans. Place flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second and panko flakes in the third.
  • 4. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a skillet to 350 degrees.
  • 5. Dredge chicken in flour, dip in eggs and coat with panko in that order.
  • 6. Fry chicken in batches until golden brown on both sides; drain on paper towels.
  • 7. To make katsu sauce, combine catsup, soy sauce, sugar, Worcestershire sauce and red pepper in a small bowl and set aside.
  • 8. Cut into one inch slices and serve hot with katsu sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are ideal for this recipe. If you're using chicken breasts, pound them to an even thickness so they cook evenly.
  • Use panko breadcrumbs. Panko breadcrumbs are light and airy, and they give the chicken a crispy coating. You can find panko breadcrumbs at most grocery stores.
  • Season the chicken well. Don't be afraid to use plenty of salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When you're frying the chicken, don't overcrowd the pan. This will cause the chicken to steam instead of fry, and it will make it soggy.
  • Cook the chicken until it's golden brown. Fry the chicken until it's golden brown and crispy on all sides. This will ensure that it's cooked through.

Conclusion:

Hawaiian chicken katsu is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is crispy and flavorful, and the katsu sauce is sweet and tangy. Serve it with rice and vegetables for a complete meal.
