Ingredients

  • 500g chicken tenderloins

  • salt, to season

  • 2 cups panko breadcrumbs 

  • ¼ cup furikake (Japanese rice seasoning)

  • ¼ cup plain flour

  • 2 eggs, beaten

  • ½ cup vegetable oil

  • Japanese mayonnaise, to serve

  • Japanese katsu sauce (such as Otafuku or Bulldog) or barbecue sauce, to serve

Method

  1. 1. Season the chicken tenderloins well with salt. Combine the breadcrumbs with the furikake and mix well. Dredge each tenderloin first in the flour, then egg, then the furikake mixture. Set aside for 5 minutes. 

    2. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the oil. Fry the tenderloins for about 3 minutes on each side until cooked through. Remove from the pan and drain on a wire rack. In a small dipping bowl add the mayonnaise on one side and fill the other side with a few tablespoons of katsu sauce to serve. To eat, dip the tenderloins into the mayonnaise and katsu sauce.
