1
Rub the salt and pepper A into the chicken thigh and place in a zipper bag.
-
2
Place in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes-1 hour.
-
3
It is also all right to use shio-koji here instead.
-
4
Make the dressing while the meat in Step 1 is marinating.
-
5
Finely dice the onion.
-
6
Soak in water and rinse, changing the water 5 or 6 times, to get rid of the spiciness.
-
7
When the white onion has turned a little transparent, try a little bit and see if the spiciness has gone.
-
8
If it has, it is OK.
-
9
This is easy if you use a sieve placed in a bowl filled with water.
-
10
Slice the tomato in half horizontally.
-
11
Remove the leaves and seeds, and finely dice (it's OK to leave the skin on).
-
12
Also finely dice the garlic and shiso leaves (if you prefer it spicy, add more garlic and grate).
-
13
Grate the stock cubes into a powder.
-
14
Put the ingredients from Steps 3-7, and ingredients into a bowl and mix.
-
15
The dressing is done.
-
16
Next we will make the steamed chicken.
-
17
Steam the chicken from Step 1 in a microwave steamer or regular steamer.
-
18
It will take around 20 minutes to cook.
-
19
You can tell if it is cooked by pressing the surface - if it is hard it is done - but you can be sure by cutting the chicken in half.
-
20
You will slice it later anyway.
-
21
If there are any raw areas, steam it again.
-
22
When it is cooked, soak in ice-cold water for about 3 minutes.
-
23
Remove the excess water and slice.
-
24
Top with plenty of dressing from step 8 and the dish is complete.
