What Is Tori Katsu
Let’s make a popular Japanese dish today. Chicken Katsu チキンカツ, also known as Tori Katsu or a Japanese Chicken Cutlet.
How To Make Chicken Katsu
It is very similar to the Pork cutlet also known as Tonkatsu とんかつ. Pork cutlet is breaded with panko and then deep fried to get a nice crispy outside layer served with katsu sauce and with shredded cabbage or rice. For today, instead of pork we will be using chicken to make Tori Katsu! Similar to the Tonkatsu, the Chicken katsu is a thin sliced chicken breast breaded with flour, egg, and Japanese panko breadcrumbs.
How To Make Katsu Sauce
For the ones who don't have the katsu sauce at home which they normally serve it with. Check out my Air Fryer Pork Cutlets Recipe Video where I made the sauce for the Tonkatsu, it will show you a very quick and easy way to make that sauce. You can adjust the flavor by experimenting with the ingredients.
