Hawaiian Katsu Chicken

This is one of Steve's favorite dishes ever! Served with a side of macaroni salad and it's complete. It is from our good friends, the Akana's, who are true Hawaiian through and through.

Ingredients:

2 lbs Chicken—boneless thighs or breast (I used tenderloins-still good)

Salt & Pepper

Garlic Powder

¼ Cup Flour

2 Eggs (beaten)

2 Cups Panko Flakes

Salad Oil for frying (Canola is what I always use)

Cooking Instructions:

Place chicken in a Ziploc bag

Flatten with a cup (I usually use a mug and whack the chix until tender)

Season Chicken on both sides with salt, pepper and garlic powder

Dredge chicken in flour; dip in eggs & coat with panko (easy if set up in order, it's also easier if you cut the chicken into strips after whacking)

Heat oil & fry chicken until golden brown

Drain on paper towel

Cut into 1 inch strips

Serve with Katsu Sauce!

SAUCE

½ Cup Ketchup

¼ Cup Soy Sauce

¼ Cup Sugar

1 ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce

Dash of black pepper

Dash of ground red pepper (optional)

The sauce is what makes it. 

So good!!
