Keihan (Chicken Rice)

Keihan is the representative local cuisine of Amami Olamia. Shredded chicken, thin omelet strips, shiitake mushrooms, and pickled papaya are placed on rice, and then served with plenty of hot soup made from a whole chicken. It is said to have originated during the era of Satsuma Clan rule as a luxurious dish created to entertain officials visiting from the mainland. Later, the style of pouring chicken soup over it like chazuke became widespread, resulting in its current form. Since it can be eaten light and easy, it is a wonderful dish for days when you have little appetite. The rich broth soaks into the stomach with a refined, smooth taste. Please try this bowl of hospitality nurtured by Amami.
