Yakitori — brochetas de pollo a la parrilla japonesas
Japan's beloved izakaya skewer: bite-size pieces of chicken (and every part of it — thigh, skin, meatball, liver) threaded onto bamboo and grilled over hot coals, brushed with a glossy sweet-savoury tare glaze or simply seasoned with salt. Yakitori is smoky, charred-at-the-edges, and made for sharing over cold beer. The magic is high, direct heat, repeated dips in the tare, and not overcooking the juicy thigh.
