Cook the rice. First, rinse it well under running water, then put it to cook. For rice, you need to prepare a dressing. Mix vinegar, salt and sugar. When the rice is cooked, pour the dressing into it and mix well.
Boil the chicken fillet, cool it and cut it into small cubes. You can also tear fillets into fibers. Mix the chicken with mayonnaise and proceed to the formation of onigiri.
To do this, take some rice in the palm of your hand and make a flatbread out of it. Put some filling in the middle and roll the ball. Make a traditional triangle shape out of a ball.
When serving, you can wrap the onigiri with a strip of nori or leave it as it is. Put it on a platter and pour soy sauce over it.
