Chicken Breast Recipes Series

As most of you would know by now, we are Japanese food junkies and The Food Critic especially LOVE the Japanese Sukiyaki soup SO we started cooking our own Sukiyaki soup using chicken breast meat at home instead of spending more $$ on Japanese restaurants.

It is pretty simple to make sukiyaki, actually so, here it is:

Japanese Sukiyaki Soup Recipe

3 medium sized tomatoes, quartered

300g chicken breast meat, sliced thinly (and about 1/4 of chicken carcass), all seasoned with salt

An assortment of fish balls (the quantity depends on how much you want to eat)

8 tbsp sukiyaki sauce (you could always get the Kikkoman Sukiyaki Sauce Chicken breast recipes: Japanese Sukiyaki Soup or if you are in Penang, I’d recommend you go to this shop and they’d recommend you some really great sukiyaki sauce)

Instructions

The original recipe also calls for bamboo shoots but we don’t like bamboo shoots so we gave it a miss. Still the soup was out-of-this-world!
