Categories: Poultry Startrek
Yield: 8 Servings
1 | | Med onion,thinly sliced |
1 | | Lemon |
1/4 | c | Sugar |
1/4 | c | Japanese light soy sauce |
1/4 | c | Sake or white wine |
4 | | Whole chicken breasts,halved |
| | Egg |
3/4 | c | Flour |
1/3 | c | Cooking oil |
Put onion in large bowl. Cut the ends off the lemon, slice it and add to
the onion. Add the sugar, sake, and soy sauce; stir well. Rinse and pat dry
the chicken breasts, put them in the bowl and spoon the marinade over them.
Marinate them for an hour at room temperature, stirring occasionally to be
sure that all pieces are more or less equally marinated. In a dish or small
mixing bowl, thoroughly beat the egg. Put the flour in a plastic bag, dip a
couple of the chicken breasts in the egg and shake them with the flour in
the bag to coat them. Heat the oil in the pan and add the floured chicken
breasts. Repeat until all the pieces are coated and in the frypan. Brown
the chicken on both sides over medium heat (it should take about 20 to 30
minutes) and then add the marinade and simmer until the chicken is well
cooked, perhaps another 30 minutes.
