Ingredients

  • 1 lb. (500g) ground chicken thaw to room temperature
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 scallion cut into rounds
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 dashes ground white pepper or black pepper
  • 3 dashes cayenne pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Japanese mirin sweet cooking wine, optional
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil

Teriyaki Sauce (Optional)

  • 1/3 cup Japanese mirin sweet rice wine
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce low sodium preferred
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients and stir to mix well.
  • To shape the ground chicken mixture into patties, wet both hands with water. Scoop up the mixture, form it into a ball, and then flatten it with your hands. Set aside.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add the cooking oil. Transfer the chicken patties to the skillet and pan-fry for about 1-2 minutes on each side. If the center is not cooked through, continue to flip the patties back and forth until fully cooked.
  • Combine all the ingredients for the Teriyaki Sauce in a saucepan. Simmer on low heat, reducing the sauce to a thicker consistency for about 10 minutes. Serve the chicken patties with the teriyaki sauce, if desired.

Notes

  • If you double the recipe, you can use one egg, including the egg white.
  • DO NOT use breadcrumbs or panko in the ingredients.
  • Breadcrumbs soak up the natural juice in the ground chicken, making the patty dry with a grainy texture.
  • DO NOT coat the patties with breadcrumbs, too.
  • Shallow fry the patties on a skillet with just a little bit of cooking oil.
  • DO NOT deep fry.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of cooking wine (you can use white wine or Japanese sweet rice wine “mirin”) into the ground chicken mixture.
  • This will ensure that the patties are bursting with juicy flavors.
