This recipe is from Buzzfeed Japan's video, on youtube here. It is fantastically good and unlike a lot of their other yummy recipes does not involve deep frying. I've written it down so that I don't have to go to their video and play and pause it repeatedly every single time I want to make this! I only have access to bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs so I learned how to debone them from here.
Ingredients
Chicken Marinade:
- 8 Skin-on, boneless chicken thighs
 - 4 tsp Minced ginger
 - 4 tsp Minced Garlic
 - 3 tsp salt
 - 8 tbsp rice wine vinegar or Sake
 
Sauce:
- 8 tbsp light soy sauce
 - 8 tbsp vinegar (I've used everything from rice wine to apple cider)
 - 4 tbsp sesame oil
 - 4 tbsp sugar
 - 1 tsp minced ginger
 - 1 tsp minced garlic
 - 4-5 scallions, finely diced
 - 2-3 red peppers finely sliced
 
Frying oil
Method
- Debone the chicken and cut off excess skin and fat. Cut small gashes through the skin and meat.
 - Marinate the chicken with the other ingredients under marinade for ~30 minutes. I marinate covered in the fridge if its going to be longer
 - Mix the ingredients under sauce together to make the sauce
 - Coat the chicken thighs in potato flour.
 - Add a couple of table spoons oil to a frying pan and heat.
 - Fry the thighs on medium heat, first skin side down for 5-7 minutes and then flip for 5-7 minutes.
 - Cut into slices and serve on rice with the sauce on the side or on top.
