Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 teaspoons garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon miso paste
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha adjust to taste
  • 2 packs of instant ramen noodles discard the seasoning packets
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 2 green onions sliced
  • 2 soft-boiled eggs optional
  • Sesame seeds for garnish optional

Method
 

  1. In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, add the minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, miso paste, and sriracha. Stir well to combine and bring to a simmer.
  4. Add the ramen noodles to the pot and cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Once the noodles are cooked, return the chicken to the pot and add the baby spinach. Stir until the spinach is wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
  6. Serve the ramen in bowls, topping each with sliced green onions and a soft-boiled egg if desired. Sprinkle with sesame seeds for garnish.
