  5. Flip the chicken over and reduce the heat to medium. Add the two tablespoons of sake, cover, and let cook until the sake is almost completely absorbed.
  6. Remove the lid, then remove the chicken from the pan briefly. Use a paper towel to remove any excess oil, then return the chicken to the pan.
