Yakitori is a traditional Japanese dish of bite-sized chicken pieces skewered and grilled over charcoal. It can be seasoned with either salt (shio) or a savory-sweet soy-based sauce (tare) to enhance the smoky flavor. Commonly served in izakayas and street stalls, yakitori offers a variety of cuts and vegetables that are perfect to make for a special occasion or just for a weeknight dinner.
