Oyster Sauce Chicken Donburi Bento

DSC_0342
Today's bento is Chicken Donburi. Donburi is *rice topped with dishes*, which is one of quick rice dishes that you can whip up. I make it when I don't want to think this and that about what to make for bento. Today I made oyster sauce-flavored chicken stir-fry. I put it on rice, and sprinkled with a bit of shichimi togarashi and white sesame seeds. Along with boiled egg wedges I made yesterday.

I dredged chicken thigh pieces with some flour, then browned both sides in a bit of sesame oil. Then stir-fried it along with green onion and some kinds of mushrooms that I had in the fridge. Then I seasoned with shoyu and a bit of oyster sauce. That's all I did!

This dish goes great with rice! And tasty cold! Of course it's better if reheated.

In the meantime, I made fluffy mousse using homemade yogurt. It came out so much better than I thought that I'm going to share the recipe on my sweets blog. Stay tuned!

    Well, if that isn't good, I wouldn't know what is.  I just saw a donburi recipe on the Cooking with Dog channel on Youtube. I hadn't realised that donburi is actually a presentation style. And, your top picture is gorgeous : I love the soft light that seems to come of the eggs :o)  And now off to check that sweets blog of yours ...

    Thanks so much Ingrid! There are a lot of variations of donburi. Nice combinations of rice and dishes.
    I finally wrote up the recipe there. Hope it's easy to follow. :)

    Thanks so much Melonpan! I've been eating lately yogurt dessert instead of high calorie cake. ;)
    I hope you have a chance to make the mousse and your own yogurt.
