Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare Rice: If using fresh rice for your Omurice, cook it with slightly less water to prevent mushiness and set it aside. Ideally, use day-old rice.
- Sauté Aromatics: Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the diced yellow onion and minced garlic, stirring frequently for about 2 minutes until they turn translucent.
- Cook Chicken: Once the aromatics are ready, add the bite-sized pieces of chicken thighs to the pan. Season lightly with salt and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add Vegetables: Stir in the diced brown mushrooms and frozen mixed vegetables directly from the freezer into the pan. Cook for an additional minute, mixing well.
- Incorporate Rice: Add the day-old or freshly cooked rice to the pan, breaking apart any clumps with your spatula. Gently mix it with the chicken and vegetables.
- Season Rice: Pour in the ketchup and soy sauce, stirring to distribute evenly throughout the rice mixture. Cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- Plate Rice: Spoon the rice mixture onto a plate, shaping it into a mound, then invert another plate over it to release the rice mound.
- Prepare Omelet: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add a little oil.
- Serve: Once your omelet is about 80% cooked, slide it out of the pan and gently fold it over the plated rice mound.
