Oyako Donburi Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute chicken strips and onion until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain off as much liquid as possible.
• Stir in the chicken broth, and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and carrot, and let simmer for a few minutes before stirring in the sugar, soy sauce and salt. Simmer for 3 more minutes. Sprinkle in half of the green onions, stirring gently. Pour beaten eggs over the chicken mixture, and simmer until the eggs are cooked through, about 10 minutes. Serve over Japanese sticky rice.

Steps:

• Rinse the rice in 3 to 4 changes of water until the rinse water is almost clear, and drain off the rinse water. Bring the rice and 4 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Place the chicken in a nonstick skillet with a lid, and cook and stir over medium heat until the chicken is no longer pink inside and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the onion, and cook and stir until the onion is soft, about 5 more minutes. Pour in the stock, and whisk in soy sauce, mirin, and brown sugar, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil, and let simmer until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.
• Whisk the eggs in a bowl until well-beaten, and pour over the chicken and stock. Cover the skillet, reduce heat, and allow to steam for about 5 minutes, until the egg is cooked. Remove from heat.
• To serve, place 1 cup of cooked rice per bowl into 4 deep soup bowls, top each bowl with 1/4 of the chicken and egg mixture, and spoon about 1/2 cup of soup into each bowl.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, add chicken, peas, green onions and dashi.
• Cook for 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked.
• Add shoyu, sugar, ajinomoto and mirin; mix to blend.
• Add the eggs, mix to combine and bring to boil.
• Turn off heat and place cover on saucepan.
• Eggs should not be overcooked.
• Toast nori lightly either over a flame or on stove element.
• Crumble nori into pieces with your fingers and place in a bowl.
• Fill rice bowls with rice and pour chicken and egg mixture over top generously.
• Sprinkle with crumbled nori.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cut the chicken breast into thin slices.
• Soak dried shiitake mushrooms in lukewarm water until soft.
• Cut off hard stems and cut in halves.
• Cut onion into thin slices.
• Chop cilantro.
• In a large skillet with a lid, mix all the simmering sauce ingredients and bring to a boil.
• Add chicken, mushrooms and onion and cook over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, or until chicken is done and onion is tender.
• Beat eggs in a small bowl, then pour over the chicken and cover with a lid.
• Cook until the egg is set, about 1 minute on low heat.
• Sprinkle cilantro on top.
• To serve: put about 1 1/4 cup of rice in a large, deep bowl and gently lay 1/4 of the chicken and egg mixture on top.
• Pour simmering sauce over and serve immediately.

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.
