Oyakodon recipe

Mar 28, 2014 by Jessica

Oyakodon is chicken and egg rice bowl. In Japanese, Oyako means parent and child so it’s indeed a smart word play to name this seasoned chicken and egg rice bowl (donburi). I made this dish following my Japanese week in the kitchen and this is one of the easiest dishes I’ve made in the kitchen.

The whole dish is oil free and is boiled. It’s basically a one pan dish (which I love due to little washing) and it’s fairly quick. The recipe here is for one bowl because it’s easier to do so. Multiply the recipe to the amount of serve your require. Don’t forget to cook some jasmine rice to go with the Oyako or otherwise it won’t be Oyakodon without the “don”.

Enjoy!
