A budget-friendly, time-saving, and voluminous recipe for "Fluffy Shiso Chicken" using chicken breast and shiso leaves. The egg-enriched batter creates a crispy outside and a moist, tender inside. The refreshing flavor of shiso perfectly complements the savory chicken, making it ideal for both rice and snacks.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Shiso Leaves 6 leaves
  • Chicken Breast 1 small piece (250g)
  • Egg 1
  • All-Purpose Flour 2 tbsp

Seasonings

  • Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 1 tbsp
  • Mayonnaise 1 tbsp
  • Chicken Bouillon Powder 1 tsp
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Pepper (to taste)

Steps

  1. Finely chop 6 shiso leaves after removing the stems.
  2. Slice 1 small piece (250g) of chicken breast lengthwise and cut into thin slices about 1cm thick. If large, cut into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Place the sliced chicken breast and chopped shiso leaves in a bowl.
  4. Add 1 tbsp of Cooking Sake (Rice Wine), 1 tbsp of Mayonnaise, 1 tsp of Chicken Bouillon Powder, salt (to taste), pepper (to taste), and 1 egg to the bowl.
  5. Beat the egg and mix everything thoroughly.
  6. Add 2 tbsp of All-Purpose Flour and mix until no lumps remain.
  7. Heat oil to a depth of about 3-5mm in a frying pan over medium heat.
  8. Arrange the chicken breast coated in the batter in the heated frying pan. Use a spatula to scrape any remaining batter from the bowl onto the chicken.
  9. Cook over medium heat for 2 minutes 30 seconds to 3 minutes until golden brown on the bottom, then flip.
  10. Cook the other side until golden brown.
  11. Cook for a total of 5-6 minutes, until both sides are golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain the oil.
  12. Once drained, plate the chicken. (The key!) Adding egg to the batter creates a fluffy, crispy texture while keeping the chicken moist and tender.
