Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice the onion into thin half-moons. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. Step 2

    Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and light golden, about 4 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Push onion to the side. Add beef and remaining oil, cook without stirring for 90 seconds until edges brown.

  4. Step 4

    Stir beef and onion together. Pour soy sauce and mirin over, toss constantly until sauce coats everything, about 2 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Beat eggs lightly. Push beef-onion mix to edges, pour beaten eggs into center. Scramble gently until just set, 90 seconds.

  6. Step 6

    Divide rice between bowls. Top each with beef-onion-egg mixture and drizzle any pan sauce over top.

Tools you’ll need

  • 12-inch nonstick or cast iron skillet
