I think I got the idea for this meal at my mother in law’s dinner. I just guessed what I am supposed to use. It is a bit sweet, but tender. My husband really liked it a lot. It is not quite Japanese style, so I suppose I will call this a Japanese fusion meal.
Ingredients for 3 people (If you are a big eater, it’s just right for 2 people)
For Marinating chicken
- Chicken breasts 5 pieces
- Refined rice wine 15 ml
- Pepper 1 sprinkle
- Sugar – 2 tbsp
- Soy sauce – 2 tbsp
- Korean Plum Extract 15 ml (It is optional, however it tastes a lot nicer.)

-Preparation
- Rinse the chicken with cold water.
- Cut the meat to small pieces.
- Put the meat into a bowl then, pour in the refined rice wine and sprinkle the pepper on top.
- Soak for about 15 minutes.
- Add some soy sauce, sugar, and plum extract into the meat bowl. Mix them well.
- Marinate this for about 30 minutes.
For salad
- 5 medium leaves of lettuce
- 1/5 of each of a small green and small red capsicum
- 1 medium tomato
- Honey mustard sauce
For steamed and pan fried veggies
- 1 medium head of broccoli
- 1 carrot
- 2 King oyster mushrooms
-Preparation and Cooking
- Start with long slicing some carrots.

- Cut some broccoli.
- Then steam some carrots and broccoli for about 10 minutes each. Keep them in the pot until you’re ready to eat. (I recommend to steam them separately, however I was in a rush, so I steamed them together.)
- While it’s steaming, thin slice the mushrooms.
- Still while steaming the veggies, cut some lettuce into small strips, tomato into quarters,and thinly slice some capsicum.
- Put no.5 into a dish. The salad is then ready.
- Pan fry the mushrooms in a little oil until they turn brownish. (That’s the veggies now done).
Main dish – Chicken
- Pan fry the chicken (in a little oil). Turn the chicken pieces as needed until they turn brownish.
- Serve all the above on the plates.






I loved your recipe. I’m just 17 and an international undergraduate student in the UK. I thought I’d get a bit adventurous and try your recipe. I’m not much of a cook but your recipe was easy to follow and it just came out great!
Thanks a ton. Hope you continue this forte.
Hi Aaron,
I’m very pleased to hear that your meal turned out so well.
Just found this recipe today and decided to give it a try! I made a few chances though to suit what I had in the kitchen… I used canne chicken breast, apple cider instead of the wine, and added 2 tbs. of teriyaki as well… Still so very delicious! Plan on making tomorrow for my boyfriend!
Don’t mind all my spelling mistakes, lol… Eating while typing! lol.
Thanks Brittany,
I hope your boyfriend also enjoyed it too.
