How To Make Sushi (Japanese Recipes)

Step 11:

Now, try and find a spot in your hopefully crowded fridge for the marinade to sit. It took me almost 10 minutes of rearranging stuff to get a nice flat spot.


So, now we let the marinade sit for 4 to 4 1/2 hours in the fridge. Make sure to check in once every 45 minutes to hour and shake around the bag some more, flip it over, redistribute the contents, etc.

Step 12:

Okay, so the four hours is up. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit (177 celsius for you non-yanks). Pull the chicken out of the fridge, open the bag and dump the entire contents into a pyrex or other baking dish. Now add the 3/4 cup of chicken broth that you've been wondering what to do with for four hours. Put this in your preheated oven and let it cook for 30-40 minutes. For reference, I forgot to preheat my oven and just cooked it at 375 instead and the thinner pieces were slightly overcooked at 36 minutes when I pulled it out of the oven.

Step 13:

After you take the chicken out of the oven strain off all the excess chicken broth/fat/etc. leaving only the chicken and marinade ingredients. I've found the best method for this to be a slotted spoon.

Step 14:

Add on whatever sides you feel like. Tonight I opted for last night's leftover pesto linguine and some sauteed vegetables. Usually I serve this dish with rice pilaf or coos coos for the full Mediterranean/Middle East dish but I got lazy tonight.
