Chili-Lime Nordic Chicken Katsu

Method

1. Start by prepping your chicken thighs, olive oil, garlic so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the shallots and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Turn the heat up, add the chicken katsu, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
4. Stir in the chicken stock along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Taste and adjust, then finish with a grating of hard cheese right before serving.
6. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
