ingredients:

step 1:
Put the chicken in a container. Spread half of the sake lees mixture (from Cucumber Pickled in Sake Lees) over one side of the chicken.
step 2:
Turn the chicken over and spread the remaining sake lees mixture over the opposite side. Cover with some plastic wrap and place the container in the refrigerator for half a day to 1 day.

Remove from the refrigerator and wipe lightly with a paper towel to remove any sake lees mixture. Sear the chicken about 5 minutes on medium heat skin side down. Sear the opposite side for about 3 minutes.
comment:
Sake lees mixture, which contains a lot of umami and nutrition, soaks into the chicken and makes it very delicious. Please be careful when cooking as the sake lees is easy to burn.
