Warm, comforting, and bursting with umami flavor, this Gluten-Free Authentic Ramen Noodle Soup brings the iconic Japanese dish to your table without the gluten. Featuring tender gluten-free ramen noodles, juicy shredded chicken, and a rich broth infused with tamari, mirin, garlic, and fresh ginger, this recipe captures the essence of traditional ramen while catering to dietary restrictions. Earthy shiitake mushrooms, crisp bok choy, and a perfectly soft-boiled egg add layers of texture and flavor, while a touch of sesame oil keeps it irresistibly aromatic. Ready in under an hour, this ramen is an ideal meal for weekday dinners or cozy nights in. Garnished with scallions and nori strips, itβs a restaurant-worthy bowl that everyone, gluten-free eaters included, will adore.
Begin by preparing the broth. In a large pot over medium heat, add the sesame oil and let it warm up for about a minute.
Add the sliced ginger and minced garlic to the pot. SautΓ© until fragrant, approximately 2 minutes.
Add chicken thighs to the pot and sear each side for about 3 minutes until lightly browned. Remove the chicken and set aside.
Pour the chicken broth into the pot and bring it to a gentle simmer. Add tamari, mirin, salt, and black pepper to the broth.
Place the chicken thighs back into the pot, ensuring they are submerged in the broth. Let simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
While the chicken simmers, prepare the gluten-free ramen noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a separate small pan, sautΓ© the sliced shiitake mushrooms until tender, about 3-5 minutes. Set aside.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the broth and shred it into bite-sized pieces.
Add the chopped bok choy to the simmering broth and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes.
To assemble the ramen, divide the noodles equally into serving bowls. Top with shredded chicken, sautΓ©ed mushrooms, bok choy, soft-boiled egg halves, and sliced scallions.
Pour the hot broth over the ingredients in each bowl.
Garnish with strips of nori and serve immediately.
