How to Make Parent And Child Domburi Oyako Domburi

  1. Cook rice according to package directions using the absorption method. Keep warm.
  2. In a bowl, combine cubed chicken with 1 teaspoon salt. (Optional: Marinate chicken in 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 tablespoon mirin for 15 minutes before cooking).
  3. In a medium saucepan, bring chicken stock, mirin, and soy sauce to a boil.
  4. Add chicken to the boiling mixture. Return to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
  5. Meanwhile, lightly beat eggs with a pinch of salt.
  6. Add the beaten eggs and ¾ of the sliced spring onions to the simmering chicken mixture.
  7. Without stirring, let the mixture return to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat to very low, cover, and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the eggs are set but still slightly soft.
  8. Gently spoon warm cooked rice into heated earthenware bowls.
  9. Carefully pour the hot chicken and egg mixture over the rice.
  10. Garnish with the remaining spring onions and optional sesame seeds.
  11. Serve immediately.
