Description

This Japanese Chicken and Egg Bowl, also known as Oyakodon, is a comforting and flavorful dish that's surprisingly easy to make. Tender chicken thighs simmered in a savory dashi broth with sweet onions, all topped with perfectly cooked eggs and served over fluffy white rice. It's a quick and satisfying meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. I love how the flavors meld together, creating a harmonious balance of sweet, savory, and umami. Feel free to adjust the amount of brown sugar to your liking. This dish is best served immediately for the ultimate taste experience!
