Chicken Drumettes: Crispy Outside, Juicy Inside Karaage with Shio-koji

Translated by AI

Chicken drumettes marinated in shio koji, resulting in a crispy exterior and juicy interior when double-fried! 【Ingredients - for 15 drumettes】 * Chicken drumettes: 15 pieces (about 900g–1kg) * Shio koji (salt koji): 4–5 tbsp * Grated ginger: 1 tsp * Sake: 1 tbsp * Potato starch: as needed * Oil for frying: as needed 【Instructions】 1. Make shallow cuts along the bone on each drumette. 2. Place drumettes, shio koji, ginger, and sake in a plastic bag and mix well. 3. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour. 4. Just before frying, lightly pat dry and coat all over with potato starch. 5. Deep-fry at 160–170°C for 4–5 minutes, then remove and rest for about 3 minutes. 6. Deep-fry again at 180–190°C for 1–2 minutes until the surface is crispy. ※Cooking time varies depending on the size of the drumettes. Don't rely on time alone—make sure they're cooked through to the center. Shio koji tends to burn easily, so watch the color while frying and adjust as needed.
