Oyakodon!

It's a really filling meal that's easy! Especially if you feel lazy in a cold day. My version is a bit simplified than the traditional recipe.

Oyakodon (serves 1 person)

less than 1/2 cup leftover cooked chicken or turkey, chopped to bite-size pieces
1/4-1/3 cup water
1/4 teaspoon chicken stock powder
1/2 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sake/chinese wine
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger or 1 teaspoon grated ginger
1/4 onion, sliced thinly
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 green onion, chopped (optional)
1 mitsuba stalk, chopped (optional)
4 snow peas, sliced in half diagonally (optional)

1. In a shallow pan, combine water, ginger, chicken stock powder, soy sauce, mirin, sake and sugar.

Add in onion, cover and turn on heat on medium.

2. When it boils, add in the chicken, cover and simmer in medium-low heat for 5 minutes.

3. (optional) In the last minute, add the snow peas to absorb the sauce. Take it out after a minute.

4. When 5 minutes has past, add the beaten egg. Lightly stir to avoid sticking. Cover and let it settle for 3 minutes.

5. Serve piping hot on a bowl of hot rice, garnish with snowpeas, mitsuba, green onion and enjoy!
