Japanese Chicken Karaage
Japanese Chicken Karaage with Yuzu Mayonnaise, Gomoku Rice, and pickled red dragon fruit
Christopher: "I'm Christopher, and I've made you a chicken kara age, which is a Japanese fried chicken with a yuzu mayo gomoku rice, and then some pickled red dragon fruit."
Judge: "Wow. Visually, it looks traditional. I love the color of that fried chicken. It looks crisp. That takes me right back to Japan. And the lemon slices just confirmed that you're a baby boomer. "
Judge: "I found it to be very fulfilling. I love the crispiness of the chicken, the richness of the rice. It's comfort food that I want to eat."
Judge: "Well, I love the rice. I think, you know, the rice could be almost a meal by itself."
Judge: "The chicken, maybe a little bit on the bland side, but crispy and nice acidity. I enjoyed the dish."
