Yakitori Sauce- Tare
1 Cup Mirin
1 Cup Sake
2 Cups Soy Sauce
7 Tbsp Sugar
Grilled Chicken Bones
Adjust to taste and cook for 10-20 minutes to your desired consistency. I like to make double this and save for the future.
What you will need….
Grill
Natural Wood Charcoal
Regular charcoal will work fine too
Chicken Thighs
Skewers
Tare- Japanese Sweet Soysauce
Tongs
Optional: BBQ Gloves
Simple Option for serving a lot or for convenience
Cut up your chicken thighs and remove meat from the bone
Do not slice your thigh meat but keep it in big chunks
Toss those chunks, plus bones, and skin into a bag with your tare sauce.
Remove air, close and mix around
Marinate for an hour.
Skewer the big meat chunks on two skewers
I like to use the longer metal ones
This way it’s easier to turn and the meat doesn’t spin on you.
Skewer the skin like you normally would
Heat Up your Grill like normal….
Place on the grill slightly indirectly
You don’t want to char the outside to quickly so in direct is key
Cover and let sit for a minute
After a minute, uncover, turn, and cover again.
Let it cook for another minute
Do this until your meat is completely cooked, about 160 degrees Fahrenheit
Once it’s done or almost done, lather on some tare marinade, and place over the heat directly.
Do this again to the other side and flip…. Cook till your desired caramelization… do not burn!!!
You can easily pull this off onto a cutting Board
I like to chop it up into large chunks
And let people grab at it…
No Grill Option
Prepare everything like you normally would
Heat up a frying pan to medium high heat
Place the yakitori skewers on the pan
Grill both sides golden brown
Add some water, cover, and let steam, for a minute or till steam is gone
Add sauce to both sides, grill till carmelized BUT NOT BURNED….
Boom, Yakitori at home without a grill.
BONUS: get a butane torch…. Give it some of that caramelization touch!

This was one of my favorite treats when I lived in Tokyo. Getting off the subways and always seeing the street vendors making these. I'm gonna have to make these for my roommate who has never had them.

Thanks for sharing this. Been waiting for the video to make it for me family.

I was just watching your lasagna recipe video because I had planned on cooking that. And then I see this and I am now rethinking my dinner plans! This looks amazing ...and I’ve got all the ingredients including the skewers!!
Yummy thanks Benji!
Benji that looks delicious!!
Hey Benji,
That looks easy to do, thanks for sharing.
Is there any way you could teach us to make japanese okonomiyaki?
This is really good, I love yakitori ! I live in Japan and I haven’t tried cooking it at home. You demonstrate it so well.
Looks so delicious! I'll definitely give this a try. I appreciate that you made Yakitori in 3 ways. I love the smoky flavor that comes from grilling it but sometimes the pan is my only friend when it comes to Yakitori. Can't have too much smoke at home, I have to literally go outdoors for some barbecue grilling. Thanks, Benji.
Omg, this is going to be my summer go to. Thanks, Benji!
Oh, I need to check to see if you've uploaded your mushroom pasta.
Great!! Looks so delicious!! 😊👍
I am so so happy you started uploading videos again Benji ❤️ Please be consistent now & don’t go vanishing on us again ✨
Love to you , Judy & kiddos 🤗😊😘

Yakitori make me happy !!
wow! yummy 😋
That looks delicious. I’ve tried several of your recipes and they came out good. Can you do a homemade ice cream recipe?
Great video I like the way u presented video because of the sound and video quality as well as the content. However,do have 1 question . How long is the shelf life of the yakitori?
Thank you!! I'll surprise my family with this! haha
We loved all of these methods, but you know we preferred the grilled version since we are Weber BBQ experts! We’ve said it once and we will say it again, MORE grill videos please, Benji!!! You are rocking the grill and it makes us so happy!! Looking forward to your new BBQ video!!! Your BBQ sisters from Canada, Maddie & Kiki!!!🤩💃🏻🔥👏
Hi Benji, please do a recipe video on Japanese breakfast!
Hi Benji, are there other alternatives for the sauce? Not sure where I can find Sake & Mirin in my area...
Looks good! Can you do a chicken karaage recipe next
Love yakitori 😍😍
Any recommended substitute for the sugar?
does anyone in toronto know where to get that mirin? from what i've seen in asian grocery stores, they only sell the mirin that's mostly sugar/corn syrup :(
Hi Benji!! I just made the tare sauce. Quick question...is the tare supposed to be on the salty side? Not sweet like teriyaki sauce, correct? I added a bunch more sugar to the recipe to cut the saltyness. Please let me know what your thoughts are when you have a moment. Thank you so much!!
Im from tondo,where can i buy Japanese sake and all the sauce you make❓
Thank you for sharing the recipe. What do you do with the remaining sauce?? Can it be stored and used again? If so,How long can you store the sauce in fridge???
Love watching yr cooking vlogs & cooking with yr family ,My kiddos & I started watching Judy's life , stumbled upon during start of quarantine..and since, bingeing & keeping up with.. You have a lovely fam..& Judy & you are Amazing souls,always helping others..Thanks for all you both do 💯much 💖from LB,Cali🌞
How did you know it's cooked through? Any tips?
Is there any way to buy the sauce pre made ?😀😀😀
more power 💃
Can you use soju instead of sake?
Hi Benji!
In celebration of Mulan’s new release I created a video on making Mushu’s HAPPY PORRIDGE!
It’s basically a delicious rice porridge topped off with a fun 😃 happy face made out of
🍳 eggs and 🥓 bacon. I think JULIANNA, MIYA, KEIRA AND eventually LEAH will love it!
Someone wanted that last piece you dropped lol
Take a shot every time he says "go ahead"
Benji can you please include alternatives you would suggest for the viewers who don't cook with anything that has alcohol in it🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
HaDealio rice vinegar vs sake, or just leave it out would probably be ok
👍👍
🤤🤤🤤🤤
If I only got a dollar for each time he says “go ahead”
2:39 bell pepper no spring onion yes
Japanese yakitori, I like this one 😍😍😍🥰😅 and Hong Kong Observatory weather forecaster Chong Sze Ning like to eat this too 😹😹😹
is this safe to have while pregnant, with the sake?
Perhaps reduce the tade more, otherwise this looks perfect!
red flag: removing the chicken skin
*some* sugar
You don't even mentioned of the measurements of those ingredients, it's nonesense your video.!!
Start eating this, avoid the glorified crap with cheese that you gobble everyday.
Tori means bird 🙄
"and just go ahead and remove the skin..." yep lost me here, you just cut away a good portion of the flavor. Other than that, nice video.
Please stop taking the food off the skewers. They’re supposed to be on there. In traditional Japanese Yakitori restaurants, they always serve them with the skewer. If you take it off, it doesn’t become Yakitori anymore and just normal chicken with the sauce.
Note, I am currently living in Japan so, I have been to many restaurants like this and they say it’s weird to take it off for serving.
