Mochiko flour can be found in the Asian aisle in most supermarkets. I prefer the Koda Farms Blue Star brand that comes in a white box. Mochiko chicken is a favorite here in the Islands and can be found at many restaurants and lunchwagons. Great for potlucks. Preparation time does not include marinating time.

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

5 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
1/4 cup mochiko sweet rice flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
5 tablespoons shoyu (soy sauce, Aloha Shoyu preferred)
4-5 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup green onion, sliced
2 tablespoons sesame seeds (optional)

Directions

1
Cut chicken into bite-size pieces.
2
In a medium bowl, sift together mochiko flour, cornstarch, sugar, and salt. Mix well.
3
In a small bowl, combine eggs, shoyu, and garlic.
4
Whisk into dry ingredients.
5
Add chicken to mixture.
6
Fold in green onions, and sesame seeds if desired.
7
Marinate at least 4 hours; overnight is best.
8
Deep-fry until golden brown.

Great recipe - the flavors are great! We let this marinate overnight in a large ziploc and cooked the next day. It was so yummy!

I just made it everyone loved it. I live in hawaii but was to lazy to go get Mochiko flour so i used 3 tbs flour 5 tbs corn starch. I marinade it over night. I think next time i wont add the extra salt because shoyu has a lot of salt already. This recipe is a keeper and will be made again and again. Thanks so much for a great easy recipe.
