Yakitori

What is "yakitori"?

Yakitori is a popular Japanese dish that consists of skewered and grilled chicken pieces, typically cooked over charcoal. The chicken is often seasoned with salt or brushed with a sweet and savory sauce made from soy sauce, sake, and mirin. Yakitori can be made with various parts of the chicken, including the breast, thigh, and skin, as well as other meats such as pork and beef. The skewers are grilled until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crispy. Yakitori is a popular street food in Japan and is often served at food stalls and izakayas, which are Japanese pubs.
