Sesame Wasabi Fried Chicken

Crispy fried chicken pieces tossed in a sesame-wasabi batter. Served with a tangy wasabi mayo dip. Uses mirin and rice vinegar for a slight acidity. Flour and tapioca starch mix for crunch. Chicken breast chunks fried until golden. The mayo combines lemon juice and mirin with wasabi for a spicy, creamy sauce. Sesame seeds and toasted sesame oil add nutty aroma. Quick marinade and a 15-minute soak improve flavor balance. Serve warm with dipping sauce. No dairy or nuts. Asian-inspired flavors. Salt, pepper, and a hint of black pepper crush. Careful frying prevents spatter. 4 to 6 servings, around 40 minutes total.
