Omurice: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe for 5-Star Flavor

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked rice (preferably day-old)
  • 1 cup chicken breast, diced (or your protein of choice)
  • ½ cup onion, finely chopped
  • ½ cup bell pepper, diced
  • ½ cup frozen peas
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Additional ketchup or demi-glace for serving (optional)

Instructions

Creating Omurice can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

  1. Prepare the Rice: If not using day-old rice, cook rice and let it cool to minimize stickiness.
  2. Cook the Filling: In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper; sauté until softened (about 3 minutes).
  3. Add Protein: Stir in the diced chicken (or your chosen protein) and cook until no longer pink. Add the frozen peas and mix well.
  4. Season the Rice: Add the cooked rice to the skillet. Stir in ketchup, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is well combined and heated through.
  5. Prepare the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
  6. Cook the Omelet: In a separate nonstick skillet, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and swirl to coat the pan evenly.
  7. Let it Cook: As the eggs start to set around the edges, gently run a spatula around the sides to allow uncooked egg to flow out.
  8. Add the Filling: Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top, spoon the rice mixture into the center of the omelet.
  9. Fold the Omelet: Carefully fold the edges of the omelet over the filling. Slide it onto a plate, seam side down.
  10. Garnish: Drizzle additional ketchup or demi-glace over the top before serving for extra flavor.

Follow these steps, and you'll create a flavorful Omurice that will impress everyone around the table!
