Bread Crumb Chicken
I want to share my cooking experience with my readers. This entry will be completed with pictures only. Explanation is not required :) Read on.

The pictures in this entry was taken few weeks ago. Pretty much at the end of the "OK this is my last fatty food before hitting the gym again" period. After this period, gotta stick with lean meats and vegetables again.

This is my first attempt on Japanese chicken katsu.

Ingredients are : Chicken meat (preferably chicken thigh. I use chicken breast for leaner purpose), all purpose flour, beaten egg, crumbled rice and oil.


First, cut the chicken into slices. Cover it with thin layer of flour. You can add a pinch of salt and pepper onto the chicken before covering it with flour. Or else the chicken will be tasteless.


Dip the whole piece of chicken meat into beaten egg.


Cover it with crumbled breads. Lots of it.


Fry the chicken in 160 degree oil. How to determine your oil is 180 degree or 160 degree? Easy, put a wooden chopstick into middle of oil. Little bubbles mean 160 degree, a lot bubble mean 180 degree. Same method to determine the temperature of the oil before cooking normal dishes. Make sure the oil can "cover" the whole chicken meat, not only saute one side ya.


Like this.


Fry until golden brown. Poke the chopstick through the chicken to determine whether it is cooked or not. Rare meat is hard to poke through.


Chicken is cut into half for illustration purpose only. Hehe. Cover it with Japanese curry sauce if you like.

Ok back to study. Bye bye.
