Method

  1. Marinate the chicken: In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sake, mirin, grated ginger, grated garlic, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken pieces and toss until every piece is well coated, then cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes (or up to overnight for deeper flavor).
