Instructions

1. Cut each chicken tenderloin diagonally into 3 strips and put them in a bowl.
2. Add the marinade ingredients to the bowl and mix so every piece is coated. Marinate for 15 minutes.
3. Wrap a strip of yaki nori around the middle of each piece of marinated chicken, one at a time.
4. Coat each piece in cornflour/cornstarch, rolling it to coat evenly.
5. Pour oil into a frying pan to a depth of 1–1.5 cm (⅜–⅝ in) and heat to 160°C/320°F.
6. Fry the chicken for about 1.5 minutes, turn, then fry for 1–1.5 minutes more.
7. Move the chicken to a rack or a tray lined with kitchen paper.
8. Raise the oil temperature to 190°C/374°F.
9. Return the chicken to the oil for about 30–40 seconds, turning it after 15–20 seconds, until golden brown.
10. Transfer the chicken to the tray and serve hot.
