Mandrine Chicken

I love oriental food! I am the type of person who will go to a restaurant and if I find something I really like I will try to recreate it at home, because let's face it eating out is expensive! This recipe is inspired by a chicken donburi dish at a very expensive Japanese restaurant I use to go to.
