Chicken Katsu with Tonkatsu Sauce
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • pepper to taste
  • 2 cups vegetable oil, for deep-fat frying
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded to 1/4 inch thickness
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
Instructions
1
Combine the Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, and soy sauce in a bowl, adding a small amount of pepper to suit your taste.
2
Heat the oil in the deep fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
3
Prepare two separate dishes by placing flour and panko bread crumbs on them, seasoning with salt and pepper. Crack an egg into a medium-sized bowl and whisk it lightly. Dip the flattened chicken pieces first in flour, then in the egg mixture, and finally coat them with bread crumbs.
4
Fry the coated chicken breasts in hot oil until they turn golden brown and are cooked through, taking around 8 minutes. Remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Cut the chicken into thin strips and garnish with a drizzle of sauce and some sliced green onions. Serve the remaining sauce on the side for dipping.
