Place flour in one tray and panko flakes in another tray. 4. Pound the chicken with a meat tenderizer. This will soften the meat and flatten any bumps.

(About 3 minutes). 12. Remove the chicken from the fryer and drain on a rack. Once cooled, cut chicken into 1 inch pieces. 13. In a small pan, mix soy sauce, mirin, 2 tablespoons of water, dashi, sugar, and onion. Put the lid on the pot. Cook ingredients on medium heat. When it starts to boil, reduce heat to low and cook for 3 minutes. 14. Add chicken to the sauce mixture. Then place the 3/4 beaten egg on top of the chicken. Put the lid on and cook for 20 to 30 seconds on high heat. 15. Remove from the heat and add the mitsuba to the top of the chicken. 16.
