  • If you like the taste of OYAKODON, why not make one with frozen seafood?? I have already made a standard chicken OYAKODON & vegetarian OYAKODON recipe before. If you have any frozen seafood mix in your freezer, you are one step closer in enjoying this recipe! Also, this seafood OYAKODON can be a great option if you get bored with the traditional OYAKODON. The seafood OYAKODON does taste a little different with the taste of the ocean!
