Zangi introduction

Zangi (ザンギ) is a beloved chicken dish from Hokkaido, where pieces of chicken are marinated in a flavorful mixture of ginger, soy sauce, and garlic before being deep-fried to golden perfection. Compared to standard karaage (Japanese fried chicken), Zangi boasts a bolder seasoning that pairs wonderfully with a cold beer, making it an irresistible choice for chicken enthusiasts. In Kushiro, the birthplace of Hokkaido Zangi, the dish is traditionally served without prior marination, allowing diners to enjoy it with a specially made dipping sauce called "Zantare."
