Chicken Marmalade Donburi

This is one of my favourite dishes currently. I found it from some random youtuber featuring a Japanese couple that have their own home made cooking show.. youtube style. Cute.

Ingredients: 2 1/2 tbls orange marmalade, 2 tbls soy sauce, 2 tbls brown sugar, 1 tsp mirin (sweet sake), 500 g chicken, 1 tbls butter, 4 big handfuls shredded cabbage, Mayonnaise, 8 c cooked rice (any rice)

Method (now with more visual aid!):

FIRST, put the rice in the rice cooker/ pot depending on how you cook your rice.

THEN, Combine orange marmalade, soy sauce, brown sugar and mirin in a bowl with the chicken (in chunks). You can purchase mirin at citysuper for like 20 bucks or so (as well as the cabbage which is labeled as “Japanese cabbage”, it tastes better for some reason). You can marinate the chicken earlier in the day or the day before for a stronger orangey flavour.

LEAVE the chicken alone. I know it’s fun to poke. Chop the cabbage up in strips instead and take a chunk of butter and stir-fry it until brownish.

THEN stir-fry the chicken after placing the cabbage somewhere safe (aka down your pants). Do this until the chicken is light brown and less nasty than visual B in the upper right, then place it in a bowl.

TAKE the cabbage out of your pants and place it on the table, preferably in another bowl alongside the chicken.

GET your bowl of rice, place some cabbage on top with a dollop of mayo and some chunks of chicken and you’ve got the best darn bowl of something Japanese ever invented.
