Ingredients

Main Ingredients (1 serving)

  • Chicken thigh: 1 piece
  • Diced onion: 1/8 medium onion
  • Mushrooms: 2 pieces
  • Egg: 1
  • Cooked rice: 200g
  • Parsley: to taste

Seasonings

  • Ketchup: 2 tbsp~
  • Soy sauce: 1/2 tbsp
  • Vegetable oil: a little
  • Butter: 10g
  • Salt: a pinch
  • Ketchup for garnish: to taste

Steps

  1. Whisk the egg and add a pinch of salt.
  2. Heat a little vegetable oil in a frying pan, pour in the whisked egg, and spread thinly. Once the edges start to set, turn off the heat, cover with a lid, and steam. [The Key!] Spread thinly to cook quickly and steam to save time.
  3. While steaming, coarsely chop the onion.
  4. Cut the chicken thigh into thin strips.
  5. Once the egg is cooked, gently slide it onto the lid of the bento box and set aside. [The Key!] Using the bento lid helps you neatly place the egg according to the lid's size.
  6. Lightly wipe the frying pan and melt 10g of butter.
  7. Add the onion and chicken and stir-fry.
  8. Tear the mushrooms by hand and add them to the pan, stir-frying quickly. [The Key!] Using ingredients that cook easily is recommended.
  9. Add 1/2 tbsp of soy sauce and stir-fry.
  10. Once the chicken changes color, add 2 tbsp~ of ketchup and simmer. [The Key!] Since it's for a bento, evaporate the moisture well and flavor the ingredients thoroughly beforehand.
  11. Add 200g of cooked rice and stir-fry while pressing down. [The Key!] Pressing down while stir-frying mixes well and prevents rice from scattering.
  12. For the finishing touch, add ketchup to taste and a small amount of soy sauce and stir-fry. [The Key!] Soy sauce adds a crispness to the flavor, improving color, shine, and aroma.
  13. Shape the rice into a mound in the bento box. [The Key!] Mounding the rice creates a 3D effect and makes the egg stand out.
  14. Place the prepared egg on top of the mounded rice.
  15. In a separate small container, place ketchup for garnish to taste. Wrap it with plastic wrap and arrange it in the bento box along with parsley to taste.
