Chicken Shogayaki (鶏の生姜焼き) or ginger chicken is sautéed chicken and onion in a ginger-soy flavored sauce. Just like Ginger Pork and Ginger Beef, this is a popular meat entree for everyday dinner in Japan. The taste of spicy ginger and lightly sweet savory sauce perfectly complements steamed rice. Along with some miso soup (find your favorite from many miso soups in our library!), you have a nutritious and delightful meal. The dish can be done in a matter of 10-15 minutes, so it’s easily made after work or school on busy weekdays. The typical and best side vegetable for Ginger Chicken is shredded cabbage, which adds a refreshing crunch to the meal, but a green salad would do too if that’s easier. If you don’t know what to cook, this is it! Hope you give it a try!
