I got this from Sunset Magazine. The original recipe calls for ground pork but I changed it to ground chicken. Delicious!

Time 40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 hardboiled egg
2 cups medium grain rice or 2 cups sushi rice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 lb ground chicken
1/4 cup sake
2 tablespoons tamari or 2 tablespoons soy sauce, plus
1 teaspoon tamari or 1 teaspoon soy sauce
4 inches piece fresh ginger
3 garlic cloves
6 green onions
2 bunches asparagus
2 tablespoons vegetable oil or 2 tablespoons peanut oil, divided
1 cup chicken broth

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan bring rice, salt, and 3 c water to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook 15 minutes. Take off heat, still covered, and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • While rice is coming to a boil mix together chicken, sake, and 2 tbsp tamari in a small bowl. Peel and grate ginger. Put 1 tsp ginger in with the chicken; put the remaining ginger in a small bowl and set aside.
  • While rice is cooking peel and roughly chop garlic and chop green onions; add both to bowl of ginger. Trim asparagus and cut into 1.5" pieces. Set aside.
  • In a large frying pan over high heat add 1 tbsp oil and chicken mixture. Cook until no longer pink.
  • Divide rice evenly between 4 to 6 bowls. Top rice with chicken and pan juices. Return pan to heat and add remaining 1 tbsp oil, reserved ginger, garlic, and green onions. Cook, stirring, for about one minute. Add asparagus and remaining 1 tsp tamari and stir to combine. Add broth, cover, and cook until asparagus is just tender to bite, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • While asparagus cooks peel and slice hardboiled eggs into 1/4" slices. Divide asparagus and pan juices evenly between bowls of rice/chicken. Top each serving with egg slices and serve.
  • Enjoy!
