- Slice the chicken breasts into long strips and place in a bowl in the fridge.
- In a small saucepan, combine sake, mirin, soy sauce and sugar. Simmer until sugar is dissolved. Let cool and pour over the chicken. Let marinate 3 hours. Soak 12 wooden skewers at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Thread the chicken on the skewers, folding the meat accordion style. Preheat the grill (or barbecue) and place the skewers on a roasting tray. Grill while frequently basting with the remaining marinade and turning so all sides brown, about 10 minutes.
