Mochiko Chicken
Mochiko Chicken is a popular Hawaiian dish made with bite-sized pieces of chicken that have been marinated in a mixture of soy sauce, sugar, garlic, ginger, and other seasonings, then coated in mochiko (sweet rice flour) and deep-fried until crispy.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs chicken thighs boneless, skinless, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup mochiko (sweet rice flour)

- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger grated
- 2 green onions chopped
- 1/4 cup cornstarch (for coating)
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, sugar, garlic, ginger, and green onions. Add chicken pieces and marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
- In a separate bowl, coat the marinated chicken pieces in the mochiko until well coated.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large skillet to 350°F.
