Chicken katsu

When i saw my friend's blog , she had this chicken katsu, I'm drooling to see that, so i make a plan to make this ( i love chicken and i never sick to eat them,even everyday!, but i do want variety on my chicken dish).

But the time past so quick and i never get chance to make it for a month, until i saw again on some one's bento box, but when i came back to her blog, i couldn't find her recipe, so i began to search the recipe from the Internet again, until i found this good recipe from cuek.wordpress.com, written in Indonesian language.

I made this in 2 version, 1 bake (no oil, means healthier choice) and another one deep fry.

here is the recipe that i translate with a little bit of revised.

2. Marinated chicken, leave it for 30 minutes.
