Preparation

• Make tare: In a small saucepan combine soy 80 ml, mirin 80 ml, sake 60 ml, sugar 40 g, plus garlic/ginger if using. Simmer 3–5 min until slightly syrupy. Stir in sesame oil, cool.
• Skewer: Thread chicken onto soaked skewers (about 75 g per skewer). Season lightly with salt.
• Grill/Broil: Preheat grill or broiler to 210–230°C (410–446°F). Sear 2 min per side to get light char.
• Glaze: Brush generously with tare and cook 2–3 min more, turning and basting until glossy and the chicken reaches 74°C (165°F).
• Serve: Rest 2 min, brush a final thin coat of tare, finish with scallions.
