Cooking Steps
- In a large mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, sake, grated ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil. Whisk until thoroughly blended.
- Cut boneless, skinless chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and add to the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 4 hours.
- Mix potato starch and all-purpose flour in a separate bowl to prepare the coating.
- In a deep pan, heat sufficient vegetable oil to reach a depth of about 2 inches to 170°C (340°F).
- Dredge marinated chicken pieces in the flour and starch mixture, ensuring an even coating.
- Fry the coated chicken pieces in hot oil, cooking in batches for 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
- Once fried, transfer the chicken to a wire rack to drain and maintain crispiness.

Notes
Marinate chicken for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours for best flavor. Use a thermometer to ensure precise oil temperature during frying.
