Ingredients

  • 300 grams Chicken thigh, bite-sized pieces
  • 4 pieces Large eggs
  • 1/2 medium Onion, thinly sliced
  • 120 ml Dashi stock
  • 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Mirin
  • 1 tablespoon Sugar
  • 2 bowls Cooked short-grain white rice
  • 1 tablespoon Mitsuba or Green Onions, chopped(optional)
  • 1 pinch Shichimi Togarashi(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small frying pan or oyakodon pan, combine dashi stock, soy sauce, mirin, and sugar over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Add the sliced onions to the pan and simmer until they become soft and translucent.

  3. 3

    Place the chicken pieces evenly over the onions and cook for about 3-5 minutes until the chicken is no longer pink.

  4. 4

    Lightly beat the eggs in a small bowl, ensuring you do not over-mix; the yolks and whites should still be somewhat separate.

  5. 5

    Slowly pour two-thirds of the beaten eggs over the chicken and onions, then cover the pan with a lid.

  6. 6

    Cook for 1 minute, then pour the remaining egg over the top and cover again for 30 seconds until the egg is set but still slightly runny.

  7. 7

    Slide the mixture carefully onto a bowl of hot steamed rice.

  8. 8

    Garnish with chopped green onions or mitsuba and a sprinkle of shichimi togarashi if desired.
