Method

  1. Cook the Japanese short-grain rice. Simmer soy sauce, mirin, sake and sugar until slightly thick. This is the tare.
  2. Cut the chicken thighs and spring onion into even pieces. Season the chicken with salt.
  3. Thread chicken and spring onion onto skewers. Brush with vegetable oil.
  4. Grill 6 minutes, turn, brush with tare, and grill until cooked through and glazed.
  5. Serve with the rice.

Shopping tip

Coxas de frango and cebolinho are easy. Mirin and molho de soja make the tare; xerez seco stands in for sake. Soak wooden skewers 20 minutes. Rice on the side.
