Ingredients

  • 4 cups cooked sushi rice
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for brushing
  • 200g skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1/2 inch chunks
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons mirin
  • 2 tablespoons sake
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 sheet of toasted nori
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 2 tablespoons garlic chives or spring onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.

  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, mirin, sake, soy sauce, and sugar.

  4. Brush the chicken with the mixture and let it cook for a few minutes.

  5. Place the cooked chicken onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased foil. Brush with the remaining sauce and bake for 10 minutes.

  6. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, warm the cooked sushi rice over medium heat.

  7. When the chicken is done baking, cut the nori sheet into small squares.

  8. To assemble the yakitori rice bowl, divide the sushi rice among 4 bowls. Top each bowl with the yakitori chicken, a sprinkle of sesame seeds, garlic chives (or spring onion), and a square of nori. Drizzle with sesame oil.

  9. Serve the yakitori rice bowl hot and enjoy!
