Sanshoku Donburi (Three Color Rice Bowl)

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1-2 Tbsp grated fresh ginger or 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 2 Tbsp sake or rice vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp mirin
  • 3 Tbsp sugar
  • 5 Tbsp soy sauce

 

  • 6 eggs
  • 2 Tbsp sugar (or less, to taste)
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • Cooked white rice
  • 1/2 to 1 cup frozen peas

Instructions

  1. In a non-stick pan, brown the ground chicken after sprinkling it with the 3 Tbsp of sugar. Continually break up the meat so that it is in very small crumbly pieces.
  2. When it is three quarters cooked, add the mirin, sake, ginger, and soy sauce and mix well.
  3. Continue cooking and breaking up the meat until all sauce is absorbed.
  4. Beat the eggs with 2 Tbsp of sugar and the salt.
  5. In a separate pan, finely scramble the eggs so the pieces are small and fluffy.
  6. Microwave the peas until cooked.
  7. To serve, spoon rice into a bowl. On one side of the bowl, add a portion of chicken. To the other side, add eggs. And then spoon peas right down the middle.
