SIMPLE OYAKO DONBURI (OYAKODON)

Steps:

• Finely chop the green onion.
• Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces.
• Marinate chicken in soy sauce and mirin for at least 10 minutes. If you don't have mirin, you can use sake and 1/4 tsp sugar. If you don't have sake, dry sherry can be used as well.
• In another bowl, break the eggs. Divide the yolks into halves. Stir the eggs, but do not fully blend them.
• In a saucepan, heat the dashi (substitute with chicken broth) to a boil. Add the chicken and cook quickly, stirring constantly.
• When the chicken is fully cooked, add the green onions and eggs in a circular motion. Roughly stir the mixture.
• In the traditional Japanese recipe, you would turn off the heat when the eggs are half-cooked and then place the pot on a cold wet towel (to keep the eggs from cooking any further), but they don't worry about salmonella poisoning over there, so I prefer to fully cook the eggs.
• Serve on steamed rice and garnish with nori to taste.

OYAKODON

Steps:

• Mix the dashi, mirin, sake, soy sauce and sugar together until the sugar dissolves. Put the chicken thighs and onion in a small pan, and pour over half the dashi broth so the chicken is just covered.
• Slowly bring the mixture to the boil, skimming off any fat or scum that floats to the surface, and cook for 8-10 mins until the chicken is cooked through and the liquid has reduced slightly. Taste the broth for seasoning, and adjust if needed. Crack the eggs into a bowl, beat well, and drizzle over the chicken in the pan. Cook over a medium heat until the egg has thickened slightly (it's best served runny).
• Warm the remaining dashi broth in a separate pan. Serve the oyakodon over hot rice, with the extra dashi broth poured over. Season with mitsuba and togarashi or sansho pepper.
