Ingredients
- Leftover boneless fried chicken
- Mayonnaise
- Small onion (about 1/4)
- 1.5 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1.5 Tbsp corn syrup (or honey)
- 2 Tbsp water
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Cut the leftover boneless fried chicken into bite-sized pieces. If there are bones, remove them and use only the meat for easier eating.
Step 2
Crack 2 eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt, and whisk them well. Beating the eggs thoroughly will result in a fluffier scramble.
Step 3
Heat a moderate amount of oil in a pan over medium heat. Pour in the whisked eggs and cook, stirring gently, to create soft scrambled eggs. Avoid overcooking for a tender texture.
Step 4
Now, let’s make the sauce! For ultimate convenience, try the microwave method. Finely mince a small amount of onion. Combine 1.5 Tbsp soy sauce, 1.5 Tbsp corn syrup, and 2 Tbsp water in a microwave-safe container or a resealable bag. If using a bag, poke a small hole in the corner. Microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds.
Step 5
Carefully remove the sauce from the microwave – it will be hot! Stir it well to achieve a glossy, delicious sauce. Your quick sauce is ready!
Step 6
Serve a generous portion of warm rice in a bowl. Arrange the fluffy scrambled eggs around the edge of the rice, like petals on a flower, to make it visually appealing.
Step 7
In the center of the rice and scrambled eggs, pile the prepared chicken pieces. This is where your leftover chicken transforms into a satisfying main dish.
Step 8
It’s time to add the finishing touch! Drizzle the delicious chicken mayo sauce you made in step 4 evenly over the chicken. The savory and sweet notes will enhance the chicken’s flavor beautifully.
Step 9
Finally, decorate with mayonnaise. Transfer mayonnaise to a squeeze bottle or a piping bag and drizzle it in a zigzag pattern over the top for an attractive finish. Using an old medicine dropper bottle can be quite handy!
Step 10
Sprinkle with parsley flakes if desired, and your impressive Chicken Mayo Rice Bowl is complete! Enjoy this simple yet incredibly satisfying meal.
