01/31/2024: made this using leftover peruvian roast chicken and it was great. it definitely needed more liquid than the original recipe, so i increased that. also, it was fairly sweet (not in an unpleasant way), so i think i would decrease the mirin a bit (maybe 2 tbsp. instead of 1/4 cup?) next time.
