No Flour Needed! A Quick Dish with an Addictive Richness and Fragrance
Chicken thigh steals the show with dried aonori seaweed salt and cheese!
This surprisingly simple dish comes together easily. Just cook the chicken, then sprinkle it with the umami-boosting cheesy seaweed salt! No flour needed, so it’s low-carb friendly, too.
The richness and fragrance of the grated Parmesan cheese combined with aromatic dried green seaweed are a perfect match for pan-fried chicken. This dish is highly satisfying and goes excellently with both rice and drinks!

Tips & Notes
・Customizations:
ーIf you dislike grated Parmesan cheese, you can omit it. In that case, increase the salt in the marinade slightly.
ーYou can omit the garlic if you dislike it.
・Both refrigeration and freezing should be done after the dish is completed.
・A toaster oven is best for reheating! If you don't have one, place it on a microwaveable plate lined with a paper towel and heat in the microwave without plastic wrap. (If frozen, transfer it to the refrigerator to defrost naturally first!)
・I used a 10.2-inch (26 cm) frying pan.
・Shelf life: 3–4 days in the refrigerator, 30 days in the freezer.
