Japanese Poached Chicken | Ginger Scallion Sauce (No Talking)

How to make Japanese poached chicken with ginger scallion sauce at home. In this video, we make a light and refreshing poached chicken dish with tender chicken breast and a fragrant ginger scallion sauce. The chicken breast is sliced thinly, seasoned, coated with potato starch, and gently cooked in hot water. This gives the chicken a smooth, soft, and slightly springy texture. This style is sometimes called suisho-dori, or “crystal chicken,” because of its glossy, silky surface. The sauce is made with Japanese leek, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil. It has a refreshing sweet-and-sour flavor, with a gentle richness from sesame oil and the aroma of the leek and ginger. This dish is easy to eat in summer and goes well with somen noodles, rice, or a quiet home-style meal. No talking — just the natural cooking sounds.
