JAPANESE STYLE CHICKEN IN A POT SOUP



Japanese Style Chicken in a Pot Soup image

Try to find fresh shiitake mushrooms or black Chinese mushrooms for this, as they add a very distinctive flavor to the soup. If you can't find them, substitute 2 oz of dried mushrooms that have been rehydrated according to the package directions. This is a nice, light tasting chicken noodle soup. A girlfriend that moved from California gave me this recipe....don't know where she got it.

JAPANESE CHICKEN AND ROOT VEGETABLE STEW



Japanese Chicken and Root Vegetable Stew image

This vegetable-rich stew is based on a Japanese nimono, a simmered dish flavored with kombu, soy sauce and dried shiitake mushroom caps. Although the ingredients may take some searching (check Japanese or Asian markets, or online), the cooking itself is no harder than the usual chicken soup, and the results are just as comforting. You can substitute other root vegetables for the ones called for here. Just make sure to add the sturdier chunks first (taro, celery root, burdock, kohlrabi, turnip, beets) so they have enough time to cook before adding the quicker-cooking ones (turnips, sweet potatoes, winter squash). If you want to make this vegetarian, you can leave out the chicken. It works equally well. Adding cubes of tofu or pieces of fish or seafood during the last few minutes of cooking is also a nice way to go.

Categories     soups and stews, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

10 to 12 dried Japanese or Chinese shiitake mushrooms (about 1 1/2 ounces)
1 piece kombu, about 7 by 3 1/2 inches
1 pound bone-in chicken thighs (2 to 3), skins removed if you prefer (or substitute bone-in breast meat)
4 ounces taro root, celery root or potato, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
4 ounces daikon or other radishes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces (or use kohlrabi)
4 ounces carrots, yellow beets or lotus root, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup sake
2 1/2 tablespoons Japanese soy sauce or tamari, more to taste
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 ounces sweet potato, white turnip or winter squash, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
Rice wine vinegar, to taste
Ground sansho pepper, shichimi togarashi or good smoky chile powder, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, soak dried mushrooms in water overnight at room temperature. (Alternatively, you can cover mushrooms with hot water and let soak for 2 hours.)
  • Remove mushrooms, reserving the soaking liquid. Slice off stems and discard them. Cut the caps into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Place kombu in a large pot, add mushrooms and their soaking liquid, and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Meanwhile, make a drop lid (called an otoshibuta in Japanese) by folding foil into a round just smaller than the pot. Poke a few holes in the drop lid with a chopstick or knife.
  • As soon as liquid boils, remove kombu and discard or save to reuse. Add chicken, taro, radish, carrot, sake, soy sauce, sugar and salt to the pot, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, place drop lid directly on top of cooking vegetables and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 25 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from the pot and set aside. Add sweet potato to the pot, cover pot again with drop lid, and simmer for another 15 to 20 minutes, until vegetables are cooked through but not mushy.
  • Meanwhile, shred cooled chicken and divide among four bowls. Stir rice wine vinegar into stew, along with salt to taste, then ladle it into the bowls with the chicken. Garnish with sansho powder or shichimi togarashi and serve.

Oyakodon (Japanese Chicken and Egg Rice Bowl) image

This is a delicious traditional Japanese meal consisting of chicken sauteed and then cooked in a Japanese broth, and then finished with egg and served over rice. It's really easy, filling and delicious.

Provided by User

Categories     Breakfast and Brunch     Meat and Seafood     Chicken

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups uncooked jasmine rice
4 cups water
4 skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into small pieces
1 onion, cut in half and sliced
2 cups dashi stock, made with dashi powder
¼ cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons mirin (Japanese rice wine)
3 tablespoons brown sugar
4 eggs

Steps:

  • Rinse the rice in 3 to 4 changes of water until the rinse water is almost clear, and drain off the rinse water. Bring the rice and 4 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Place the chicken in a nonstick skillet with a lid, and cook and stir over medium heat until the chicken is no longer pink inside and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the onion, and cook and stir until the onion is soft, about 5 more minutes. Pour in the stock, and whisk in soy sauce, mirin, and brown sugar, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil, and let simmer until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.
  • Whisk the eggs in a bowl until well-beaten, and pour over the chicken and stock. Cover the skillet, reduce heat, and allow to steam for about 5 minutes, until the egg is cooked. Remove from heat.
  • To serve, place 1 cup of cooked rice per bowl into 4 deep soup bowls, top each bowl with 1/4 of the chicken and egg mixture, and spoon about 1/2 cup of soup into each bowl.
