2 slices lemons, to garnish

Take each piece of chicken from the marinade and roll in the flour mixture until it is coated completely.

Very simple and fast for those on the run. I found 30 minutes plenty for marinade. I added a little jam to merinade as my wife likes things on the sweet side. A little vinegar counter balanced the jam. So simple anyone can do it for a very unique flavor. Thanks - Jim McNulty

This was the maiden voyage of my new deep fryer...I let the chicken marinade much longer than the 30 minutes without a problem (something came up). However, I don't know that deep frying this dish adds so much. My deep frying options were a bit limited in wanting not to make it so carb-laden (DH's dietary restrictions), but I think I prefer this marinaded chicken in a saute pan without the cornflour.

Wonderful!!! DH and I have a Japanese night once a month and I made these this time. I added just a drop of sesame oil & honey to the marinade,they were so tasty. I also mixed the corn flour with some Panko instead of the plain flour. I served them with a plum dipping sauce on the side. Thanks for another great recipe

I used TOFU instead of chicken and added a bit of miran to the marinate. This was soo tasty and soo easy to make, I highly recommed this dish! Try it with a tangy ginger sauce for dipping or a sesame sauce. Tofu lovers rejoice, this dish will have you singing!!!
