Mochiko is Japanese rice flour. This is a "Japanese teriyaki flavored fried chicken" if you had to sum it up. It's a Local (Hawaii) Favorite and its usually eaten with white rice and a side of veggies, (Hawaii is famous for double starching, usually rice with a macaroni side) I choose to omit the double starch and add a veggie, such as a broccoli or normandy mix.

Great recipe, it took us years to find a market that sells Aloha Shoyu anywhere close. 60 miles is close, right? Thank you for posting this, we will give it a try.
