For the marinade:

• ¾ cup rice cooking wine
• ¾ cup water
• 1½ cups mirin
• 1½ cups soy sauce
• 2 scallions (green parts, finely sliced)

For the marinade:

4. Brush chicken skewers with olive oil.
5. Brush the WIRE RACK with olive oil and then place the chicken skewers on top. Place the ENAMEL TRAY under the WIRE RACK to catch drippings.
