Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 5 cups chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon ginger (fresh, sliced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 packs ramen noodles
- 2 whole scallions
- 1 cup shiitake mushrooms (sliced)
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 4 whole egg (soft boiled)
- 1 sheet nori (seaweed sheets)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
Season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and sear for 5-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the chicken broth, soy sauce, ginger slices, and garlic. Bring to a gentle boil.
Reduce heat to simmer, cover, and let it slightly boil for 10 minutes to infuse the flavors.
Slice the seared chicken breast into thin strips.
Add the ramen noodles and sliced shiitake mushrooms to the broth and cook according to noodle package instructions, typically about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the baby spinach and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes until wilted.
Remove pot from heat and taste the broth, adjusting seasoning with more soy sauce if necessary.
To serve, divide the cooked noodles and broth into serving bowls.
Top each bowl with sliced chicken, half an egg, chopped scallions, pieces of nori, and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Serve immediately for a warm, comforting meal.
