Recipe View 1 mins Assemble and Serve: Divide the cooked rice between two bowls. Spoon the chicken and egg mixture evenly over the rice. Drizzle additional chicken broth over the top to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy!

For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken stock. If you don't have shiitake mushrooms, other varieties like cremini or button mushrooms can be substituted.
Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your liking depending on your preferred level of sweetness.
For a spicy kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the broth.
Garnish with toasted sesame seeds or a sprinkle of nori (dried seaweed) for added flavor and visual appeal.
