Ingredients

  • Chicken thighs (boneless)400 g
  • Jasmine rice200 g
  • Soy sauce60 ml
  • Mirin60 ml
  • Sugar30 g
  • Fresh ginger10 g
  • Sunflower oil1 žlica
  • Green onions2 kom
  • Sesame seeds1 žlica

Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the rice in a sieve until the water runs clear. Put it in a small pot with 300 ml of water, bring to a boil, cover and cook on the lowest heat for 12 minutes, then leave it covered off the heat.

  2. 2

    Stir the soy sauce, mirin, sugar and finely grated ginger in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves.

  3. 3

    Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces. Heat the oil in a wide pan over high heat and sear the chicken until golden on all sides, about 6 minutes.

  4. 4

    Pour the glaze over the chicken and let it bubble and reduce, stirring so nothing catches, until it thickly coats every piece.

  5. 5

    Fluff the rice into two bowls, pile the chicken and glaze on top and finish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
