Chicken Katsu Bowl with preserved lemon

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 celery 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. Fold in the yellow onion and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Pour in the white wine, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a knob of butter right before serving.
7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
