Directions for Use

Chicken

Step 1: Marinate chicken breast (brush) with 2 teaspoons of wasabi paste for 20 minutes. Set aside. Mix the mayonnaise and remaining wasabi paste in a dipping bowl for later use.
 
Step 2: Coarsely chopped wasabi peas with a food processor and combine with breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl. Set aside. 

Step 3: To fry the chicken, first dust each fillet in the cornflour, shake off excess, quickly dip in the egg and coated in the wasabi pea crumbs mixture.

Step 4: Heat 1cm oil of your choice in a large frypan over medium-high heat. Shallow-fry the chicken for 3 minutes each side or until golden brown color and crispy (cook through). Line 2-3 layer of paper towel on a large place and drain the fried chicken with it. Slice each chicken fillet into bite-size strips before serving.

Step 5: Enjoy crispy fried wasabi chicken with the Japanese green salad and wasabi mayonnaise.

Salad

Step 1: Put all the veggies (carrot, celery, radish, and snow peas) into a mixing bowl. Mix them with soy sauce, vinegar and 1 tablespoon of oil. Toss to combine well. Ready to serve.
