Oyako-don : Chicken egg rice bowl

Oyako (parent-kid) don (rice bowl) is arguably one of the most popular Japanese dishes. It's very easy to cook with few ingredients. My friend had lots of chicken left in her refrige, so we cooked Oyako-don together. She made the sauce from scratch, which made a very big difference to the taste. But you can use Men-tsuyu (soba dipping sauce) you can easily get from an Asian grocery store.

You cook slicked chicken (unboned thigh is the best) in the sauce (just about to cover the chicken pieces). When the meat is cooked, add onion and cook for another 3 minutes till it's tender. Bring the heat to high and add egg (2 eggs per person), cover with lit, and cook for 1 minute. I like fresh scallions on top to add some texture and sharp flavor. Serve over steamed rice.
