Mochiko Chicken is a local favorite here in Hawaii, and it's fairly easy to make. You can make the marinade from scratch, or you can take a short cut by using Hawaii's Best Hawaiian Mochiko Chicken Mix (available at stores in Hawaii or online).
All you need to add to the mix are two eggs, and 1/4 cup of water. That's it!
Add cubed chicken thighs (uncooked) to the marinade, and refrigerate for 20 minutes, then fry. I prefer to cut the chicken into small cubes (no larger than one inch) so that the chicken cooks quicker and all the way through.
Each bag makes up to 2 1/2 lbs of chicken. Refrigerate the leftovers for snacking on the next day!
Hawaii's Best also makes other mixes, including their signature haupia and butter mochi mixes.
