Seseri Yakitori | Traditional Offal Dish From Japan | TasteAtlas

Seseri yakitori

(Kirin yakitori, Nekku yakitori, せせり, セセリ, Chicken Neck Yakitori)

Seseri is a traditional yakitori dish prepared with chicken meat from the neck area as the main ingredient. This type of yakitori is pretty uncommon as there is a limited amount of neck meat per chicken. The pieces of chicken neck are placed on skewers, then grilled until done.


Due to the fact that this muscle moves a lot, its texture is tender, slightly chewy, and juicy. The flavor is rich due to its fat content. Before the grilling process, seseri is usually seasoned with salt.
