Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Chicken Breast 350g
  • Maitake Mushrooms 150g
  • Potato Starch 2 tbsp

Seasonings

  • [A] Salt 1/4 tsp
  • [A] Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 1 tbsp
  • [B] Mayonnaise 2 tbsp
  • [B] Miso 1 tbsp
  • [B] Soy Sauce 2 tsp
  • [B] Sugar 2 tsp
  • [B] Grated Garlic 1 tsp
  • [B] Toasted Sesame Seeds 1 tbsp

Steps

  1. Leave the skin on the chicken breast, cut it in half lengthwise, and thinly slice it about 1cm thick. If the pieces are large, cut them into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Season the sliced chicken with 1 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) and 1/4 tsp Salt, and let it sit for 10 minutes. (Key Tip!) Coating with potato starch will help retain moisture, resulting in a tender and moist texture.
  3. Tear the maitake mushrooms by hand into bite-sized florets.
  4. In a large bowl, combine 2 tbsp Mayonnaise and 1 tbsp Miso and mix well until dissolved.
  5. Add 2 tsp Soy Sauce, 2 tsp Sugar, 1 tsp Grated Garlic, and 1 tbsp Toasted Sesame Seeds, then mix thoroughly to create the sauce.
  6. Coat the chicken, which has been resting for 10 minutes, evenly with 2 tbsp Potato Starch.
  7. Heat Vegetable Oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
  8. Place the potato starch-coated chicken in the heated frying pan and cook over medium heat. Once the edges of the chicken change color and the bottom firms up, flip it over.
  9. After flipping the chicken, place the maitake mushrooms on top and reduce the heat to low-medium.
  10. Cover with a lid and steam for 2 minutes. (Key Tip!) Steaming the chicken breast and maitake mushrooms together allows the mushrooms to absorb the flavors and become delicious.
  11. After steaming for 2 minutes, transfer the chicken to a bowl to prevent it from becoming tough, and lightly toss it with the sauce made in step 5.
  12. Sauté the maitake mushrooms remaining in the frying pan for 1 to 2 minutes until cooked through. Since they have been steamed, they will cook quickly.
  13. Once the mushrooms have softened, add them to the bowl with the chicken and sauce, and mix to coat everything evenly. (Key Tip!) Mixing the sauce in a bowl after cooking prevents the mayonnaise from overheating and the sauce from becoming too loose.
  14. Once everything is coated with the sauce, transfer to a plate and garnish with chopped green onions.
