Sally’s 5:2 Oyakodon
Ingredients:
2 Skinless Boneless Chicken Thighs (approx 250g)
150ml Bonito Fish Soup (Dashi)
1 Tbsp Light Soy
1 Tbsp Mirin
1 Red Onion
2 Eggs on
Served on Steamed Cauliflower Rice

Method:

1. Slice chicken in strips.
2. Slice onion in strips.
3. Place sauce into wok to boil.
4. Place chicken into sauce and simmer until braised.
5. When chicken is cooked add onion and cook to soften.
6. Gently whisk 2 egg (using chopsticks if you want to keep with the Japanese theme) and then pour slowly and gently over chicken and onion.
7. Turn down heat, cover and cook for about 1 minute, occasionally giving the wok a little shake so the egg does not stick to the edges.
8. After 1 minute turn off the heat.
9. Serve over the top of cauliflower rice  with a little spring onion if desired to make it look pretty.

Notes:

This is a Japanese comfort food. A great hearty meal. Oyako means “parent-and-child” in Japanese, a traditional Japanese rice bowl topped with simmered chicken (parent) and egg (child). I have substituted the normal rice with cauliflower rice to avoid carbs on my fast day.
