Low-Fat Japanese Chicken-Scallion Rice Bowl Recipe #343731
This recipe is out of a cookbook called eating well, healthy in a hurry. I love how simple this recipe is to make. It is great on a cold night and so healthy! I double the sauce to make it more like a soup since I love egg flower soup and this reminds me of it. I also omit the sugar, it is good without. I have only made this with white wine since i have no reason to buy mirin aside from this recipe and it turns out great. for a spicy kick, my husband likes to top this off with that hot rooster sauce. I do not know the proper name for it since it is in another language.
