Torisashi
is a Japanese dish of thinly sliced raw chicken. The chicken may be lightly seared (then also called ''tataki'' or ''toriwasa'' though originally toriwasa referred to torisashi eaten with wasabi), or quickly dipped in boiling water (''yuarai''). It is most commonly eaten with '' sumiso'' but may also be eaten with soy sauce and wasabi like other sashimi.
