Rich Stir-Fried Oyako Chicken and Egg Rice Bowl
- 1 thigh Chicken thigh meat
- 1/2 Onion
- 15 cm length Japanese leek
- 1 piece Ginger
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Mirin
- 1 tbsp Sake
- 1 to 2 tablespoons Honey (or sugar if you don't have honey)
- 1 bit less than 1 teaspoon Dashi stock granules
- 250 ml Water
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 3 large Egg
- Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces.
- Slice the onion into 1cm wide slices and the leek into 7 mm wide diagonal slices.
- Slice the ginger thinly.
- Heat some oil in a frying pan and stir fry the ginger and chicken, until the chicken is browned on the surface.
- Add the onion and leek and stir fry until browned.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil.
- Skim off any scum.
- While this simmers, beat the egg lightly.
- I recommend beating it just enough so that the yolk and white aren't totally mixed together.
- When the sauce in the pan has reduced by a bit less than half, swirl in the beaten egg and put a lid on.
- When the egg is soft-set (or to the doneness you like) it's done.
- Serve on top of rice.
- It looks nicer if you scoop it on top of the rice carefully with a spatula so that you don't mess up the soft-set egg.
- I edited the amount of honey needed, since I think some people like it sweet while others might not.
- Personally I like to use 2 tablespoons, since I prefer this on the sweet side.
