Instructions
- 1. In a skillet with sides, set over medium-high heat, add the butter, garlic, cumin, and lemon zest. Cook for 2 minutes, until fragrant and the garlic is golden. Add the lemon juice and wine (if using), cooking for 1 more minute. Pour in the broth, using more as desired. Add the tamari. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
- 2. Meanwhile, make the Katsu. Place the Panko and sesame seeds in a shallow bowl. Season with salt. Dredge both sides of the chicken through the Panko, pressing to adhere. Place the chicken on a plate.
- 3. Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown, 3-4 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and season with salt. Slice into thin strips.
- 4. Serve the chicken over bowls of rice. Spoon over the lemon sauce. Top as desired with slices of cucumber, green onions, basil, and cilantro. Enjoy!
