Whenever I buy daikon, I make simmer dishes. I thought it would be delicious with chicken, and after trying out various dishes I arrived to this flavor. This is my family's standard side dish.

Parboiling the daikon helps eliminate the smell and preserves its shape.
While the daikon is still hard, add the ★ ingredients, cover with a lid and simmer on low heat.
Using honey instead of sugar gives a nice glossy look and is very delicious.
I use half-cuts of daikon bought from the supermarket. Recipe by Hard candy

Steps

1

Remove the skin from the chicken and cut into bite-sized pieces. Sprinkle salt and pepper and set aside.
2

Cut the daikon into bite-sized pieces (rough cut).
3

Parboil the daikon in water that was used to wash rice. They'll be simmered later, so it's okay if they're still a bit hard.
4

Add vegetable oil to a frying pan and cook the chicken.
5

Add the parboiled daikon and cook together until the daikon has a cooked color.
6

Add the ★ ingredients, cover with a lid and simmer until the daikon absorbs the flavor.
7

If you bring it to a boil then stop the heat, it's easier for the daikon to absorb the flavor. When it becomes cold, turn on the heat and bring it to a boil again.
8

Once the daikon has absorbed the flavor, increase to medium heat and simmer to create creaminess. Top with green onions and it's done.
