Chicken Yakitori is a popular Japanese dish consisting of skewered chicken grilled to perfection over an open flame. Traditionally seasoned with a savory-sweet glaze made from soy sauce, mirin, sake, and sugar, it offers a delightful balance of smoky, salty, and slightly sweet flavors. The skewers can include various chicken parts—such as thighs, breasts, or even liver—alongside vegetables like scallions. A staple of Japanese street food, Yakitori is also served in izakayas (casual pubs) and at home. From a nutritional perspective, Chicken Yakitori is high in protein and low in carbohydrates, making it a good option for those seeking a lighter or higher-protein dish. However, the sodium content in the glaze can be significant, so consumption in moderation may be advised for those monitoring their salt intake. Pairing it with steamed vegetables or brown rice can help create a balanced, nutrient-packed meal.
