Make it at home
Hawaiian mochiko chicken
Overnight marinade, 30 min · 4, with rice and mac salad. Hawaii's plate-lunch fried chicken, from the islands' Japanese delis: boneless thigh marinated in a sweet-salty batter made with mochiko (sweet rice flour), shallow-fried until crackly and chewy at the edges.
