Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pack Instant ramen noodles (no seasoning packet)
- 0.5 cup Cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 1 handful Fresh spinach leaves
- 0.25 cup Shredded carrots
- 1 tablespoon Sliced green onions
- 1 tablespoon Low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 cups Chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 cup Boiling water
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Pepper
Instructions
Boil water in a kettle or pot, ensuring it is fully hot before starting the recipe.
In a thermos, place the instant ramen noodles (do not include the seasoning packet). Break the noodles into smaller pieces if necessary to fit them inside.
Add the cooked chicken, spinach leaves, shredded carrots, and green onions to the thermos.
Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil for added flavor.
In a separate pot, heat the 2 cups of chicken or vegetable broth until hot but not boiling.
Pour the hot broth and 1 cup of boiling water over the ingredients in the thermos. Ensure all the ingredients are fully submerged.
Seal the thermos tightly and let it sit for 10–15 minutes to allow the noodles to soften and all the ingredients to meld together.
Before serving, give the soup a gentle shake to mix the ingredients. Open carefully as the contents will be hot.
Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste, and enjoy your homemade Thermos Noodle Soup!
