About Chicken chashu

Chicken Chashu is a flavorful Japanese dish traditionally used as a ramen topping or served alongside rice. Inspired by the preparation of pork chashu, this lighter version features boneless chicken thighs marinated in a savory blend of soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, garlic, and ginger, then gently braised until tender and infused with umami-rich flavors. Leaner than its pork counterpart, Chicken Chashu offers a good source of protein while being lower in saturated fat. It also provides key nutrients like B vitamins and selenium. However, the dish may be high in sodium due to the soy sauce-based marinade, so moderation is advised for those watching their salt intake. With its delicate balance of sweet and savory, Chicken Chashu is a delicious option for elevating meals while offering a more health-conscious alternative to traditional chashu.
