oyakodon; chicken and egg rice bowl
A popular Japanese dish consisting of a bowl of rice topped with simmered chicken and egg. The name literally means 'parent-and-child bowl', reflecting the chicken (parent) and egg (child) pairing. Variations using other parent-child ingredient pairs (e.g., salmon and roe) exist but are less common.
