Hello, I’m Lucy. Today I’m sharing a comforting Japanese classic—Oyakodon, a tender chicken and egg rice bowl that's warm, savory, and quick to make.
This is one of my go-to meals when I want something satisfying without spending too much time in the kitchen.
🍗 Ingredients: boneless chicken thigh, sake 🍶, salt 🧂, white pepper, dashi stock 🍲, soy sauce 🧴, mirin 🍶, sugar, eggs 🥚, thinly sliced yellow onion 🧅, cooked white rice 🍚, green onion 🌿, sesame seeds, and togarashi 🌶️.
🔥 Quick Prep: Marinate the chicken with sake, salt, and pepper. Simmer onion in a sweet-salty dashi mix, then add the chicken and cook through. Pour in eggs and gently scramble
until softly set with a silky texture. Serve over hot rice and finish with fresh toppings.
The result? Juicy chicken enveloped in a soft egg blanket, balanced with the umami depth of dashi and a gentle kick from togarashi. "This is the most comforting bowl of food I’ve had all week!"—one viewer commented.
