Rice and Topping Ingredients- 1.5 bowls of warm cooked rice
- 6 pieces of chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces and warmed
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1/3 onion, thinly sliced
- 3-4 button mushrooms, thinly sliced
- Pinch of salt for egg mixture
- Vegetable oil for cooking
Sauce- 1/3 cup water
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/3 cup water
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare all your ingredients before you begin. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and gently warm it in the microwave or a pan. Wash and thinly slice the onion and mushrooms.
Step 2
Now, let’s make the wasabi mayo sauce. While plain mayonnaise is delicious, if you enjoy a hint of spiciness, mix wasabi into the mayonnaise. You can adjust the amount of wasabi to your preference. Stir well until combined.
Step 3
We’ll be making scrambled eggs. Crack the 2 eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt, and whisk them thoroughly. Lightly oil a non-stick pan and heat it over low heat. Pour in the beaten eggs and stir with a spatula or fork to create soft scrambled eggs. Once cooked, transfer the scrambled eggs to a separate plate.
Step 4
Using the same pan, add about 0.5 Tbsp of vegetable oil and the thinly sliced onions. Sauté over medium heat for about 1 minute until the onions become translucent, bringing out their natural sweetness.
Step 5
Once the onions are slightly softened, add the thinly sliced mushrooms. Continue to sauté for another minute, stirring occasionally. It’s best to cook the mushrooms briefly to retain their texture and flavor.
Step 6
Now it’s time to create the sauce. Pour 1/3 cup of water and 1 Tbsp of soy sauce into the pan. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook for about 2 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce slightly and coat the vegetables. Stir to ensure the ingredients are well-seasoned.
Step 7
Finally, let’s assemble this wonderful rice bowl! Place the warm rice in a serving bowl. Top with the sautéed onions and mushrooms. Arrange the warmed chicken and scrambled eggs on one side of the bowl. Generously drizzle the prepared wasabi mayo sauce over everything. Your delicious Chicken Wasabi Mayo Rice Bowl is ready to be enjoyed!
