  5. Bring the seasoning to simmer, then add half of the cut onion, and ½ of the chicken thigh into the seasoning to cook. (If you are cooking 2 serves in 1 frying pan then add all the onion and chicken)
  6. While the onion and chicken is being cooked, crack the three eggs open into a small mixing bowl and stir the eggs.
  7. After the onion and chicken has cooked for about 5 minutes over medium heat and the seasoning liquid has reduced to about half, pour half of the eggs over the chicken and onion and evenly sprinkle chopped green shallots (optional). 
  8. Place a lid on and turn the heat off to allow the remaining heat to cook the egg. 
  9. Serve 1½ cup of rice in a Donburi rice bowl and slide the egg and chicken cooked in the frying pan over the rice to serve.
