Rinse the rice and place it in the rice cooker pot with water.
Slice the onion and cut the chicken thigh into bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken, sliced onion, soy sauce, sugar, dashi powder, and toasted sesame seeds. Mix well to coat.
Layer the chicken and onion mixture evenly on top of the uncooked rice in the rice cooker.
Close the rice cooker and start the standard cooking cycle.
While the rice cooks, beat the egg in a small bowl.
As soon as the rice cooker finishes, quickly open the lid and pour the beaten egg over the chicken and rice.
Immediately close the lid and let the residual steam cook the egg for 2-3 minutes until it's softly set.
Open the lid, gently mix everything together, and serve in a bowl.
Garnish with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of Shichimi Togarashi, if desired.
