Creamy Chicken Miso Ramen

Ingredients

• 1 serving Ramen noodles (Fresh or dried)
• 4 oz Chicken breast (Sliced into bite-sized pieces)
• 1.5 tbsp Miso paste (White or red miso)
• 2 cup Chicken broth (Low sodium preferred)
• 2 Garlic (Minced)
• 1 tsp Ginger (Grated)
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream (For creaminess; can substitute with soy milk)
• 1 tsp Soy sauce (To taste)
• 1 stalk Green onions (Chopped for garnish)
• 1 tsp Sesame oil (For sautéing)

Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the ramen noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

2. 2

   In a pot, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

3. 3

   Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pot. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

4. 4

   Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle simmer.

5. 5

   In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste with a few tablespoons of the warm broth until smooth, then stir the mixture back into the pot.

6. 6

   Stir in the heavy cream and soy sauce. Let the broth simmer for another 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors, but do not let it boil vigorously.

7. 7

   Place the cooked noodles into a bowl and pour the creamy miso chicken broth over them.

8. 8

   Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, substitute the chicken with tofu and use vegetable broth. You can also add soft-boiled eggs or corn as additional toppings.
