Chicken Katsu Sandwiches As Made By Hitomis Mom Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Make the tonkatsu sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and sugar until combined. Set aside.
• Make the sandwich: Heat 2 inches of canola oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350˚F (180˚C).
• Slice through the thick part of the chicken thigh so it an even thickness. Season with salt and pepper on both sides.
• Add the flour, egg, and panko to 3 separate shallow dishes.
• Coat the chicken thigh in the flour, then the egg, then the panko.
• To test the oil temperature, add a pinch of panko-if it sizzles immediately, it's ready for frying. Carefully fry the chicken for about 2 minutes per each side, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
• In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and hot mustard.
• Assemble the sandwiches: Spread the mayonnaise sauce on each piece of toasted bread. On one side, layer on the cabbage, a drizzle of tonkatsu sauce, the chicken, and more tonkatsu sauce. Top with the other slice of bread.
• Cut the sandwich in half, then serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper. Place the flour, egg and panko crumbs into separate shallow dishes. Coat the chicken breasts in flour, shaking off any excess. Dip them into the egg, and then press into the panko crumbs until well coated on both sides.
• Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place chicken in the hot oil, and cook 3 or 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown.

Steps:

• For the sauce, stir together the Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, and soy sauce, and a pinch of pepper to taste. Set aside.
• Heat oil in deep-fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place flour and panko bread crumbs onto separate plates and season with salt and pepper. Place the beaten egg in a medium bowl. Dip flattened chicken pieces first into flour, then egg, and lastly bread crumbs.
• Fry breaded chicken breasts in preheated oil until golden brown and no longer pink in center, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Slice chicken into thin strips and top with a drizzle of sauce and a sprinkling of sliced green onions. Serve remaining sauce on the side for dipping.

Steps:

• Make the chicken: Fill a heavy-bottomed, high-sided skillet with about ½ inch (1 ¼ cm) of vegetable oil. Heat over medium heat until the oil reaches 350°F (180°C).
• Place the chicken thighs on a cutting board and cover with plastic wrap. Pound the chicken with the flat side of a meat tenderizer until all of the thighs are between ¼ in (6 ml) and ⅓ inch (8 ml) thick.
• On the cutting board, season the flattened chicken on both sides with the salt.
• Add the panko, eggs, and flour to 3 separate shallow bowls.
• Coat each piece of chicken in the flour, shaking off any excess, then in the egg, then in the panko. Gently press the panko into the chicken to ensure a thick, even coating.
• Working in batches, carefully fry the chicken in the hot oil for about 2 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Set on paper towels to drain and immediately season lightly with salt.
• Make the tonkatsu sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Set aside.
• Make the cabbage slaw: In a medium bowl, toss the cabbage, mayonnaise, vinegar, and salt until well coated. Season with additional salt if needed. Set aside.
• Wrap the tortillas in a damp kitchen towel and microwave for 30 seconds.
• Slice the chicken thighs into ⅓-inch (8 ml) thick pieces. Place about half of a thigh worth of meat onto a flour tortilla. Top with about ¼ cup (25 G) of cabbage slaw, a drizzle of tonkatsu sauce, sesame seeds, scallions, and cilantro. Repeat with remaining chicken to make 8 tacos total. Serve with lime wedges alongside.
• Enjoy!
