Note

Sweetbreads should be blanched in salted water for about 5 minutes, peeled, and chilled before slicing to ensure they hold their shape.

If Japanese sauce is unavailable, a mixture of soy sauce and mirin can be used as a substitute.

Coconut juice can be replaced with coconut milk for a richer, creamier sauce consistency.

Store leftover chicken and sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop.

The fried sweetbreads are best served immediately while the coating is still crisp.
