Ingredients
- 4 Chicken thighs
- 2 Medium scallions
- 2 Tbsp Sugar
- 4 Tbsp Sake
- 6 Tbsp Mirin
- 6 Tbsp Soy sauce
- Bamboo skewers (soaked in water to prevent burning)

Recipe:
Yakitori is usually skewered like a kebab. Yakitori is a great appetizer which goes with beer and sake. A common vegetable to grill with chicken is scallion. Yakitori skewered with scallion is called negima and is a popular kind of yakitori in Japan. Also, there are mainly two kinds of flavours: tare and shio. Tare indicates basting sauce, such as teriyaki sauce. Shio means salt in Japanese. This is a recipe to make tare-flavoured yakitori. The Japanese use virtually every part of the chicken in yakitori.
