Ingredients
- Vegetable oil, for drizzling
- 150 g chicken thigh fillets, cut into 1 cm chunks
- ½ brown onion, thinly sliced
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp dashi tsuyu
- 1½ cups cooked Japanese rice, sliced spring onion, sesame oil, nori strips, togarashi, to serve
Instructions
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a small frying pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken and onion and fry, stirring occasionally.
- While the chicken is cooking, crack the eggs into a small bowl and then lightly beat with chopsticks. Add the dashi tsuyu and whisk through the eggs.
- Add a splash of water to the chicken in the pan and cook for a further 1-2 minutes. Once the chicken is almost cooked through, pour half the egg over the chicken. Cook for a few seconds, then add the remaining egg mixture and cook until the edges are nearly set. Remove from the heat as the residual heat will continue to cook the eggs.
- Spoon the chicken omelette over a bowl of rice, then serve with the remaining garnishes.
