Equipment
- Skillet
- Frying Pan
- Whisk
- Peeler
- Large Pot
- Saucepan
- Chef's Knife
- Wooden Spoon
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 cup sweet corn
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 ounces fresh spinach
- 1 quart chicken stock
- 1 teaspoon red miso paste
- 6 ounces ramen noodles
- 6 ounces cooked chicken I used leftover garlic butter roasted chicken
- 4 green onions thinly sliced green onions
- toasted sesame oil for drizzling
- nori/seaweed pieces for serving
Instructions
- Begin by soft boiling the eggs so they can cool. Heat about 3 inches of water in a small saucepan over medium heat until boiling. Once boiling, reduce the heat until it’s barely a simmer, add the eggs gently and cook for 6 minutes. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and place in an ice bath. Let cool completely before peeling.
- In a small saucepan, heat the butter and add the corn, stirring to coat. You can add a sprinkle of salt and pepper if desired. Place the corn in a bowl. Add the olive oil to the skillet and cook the spinach until it just begins to wilt.
- Heat the chicken stock just until it’s boiling. Whisk in the miso paste. Add the ramen noodles and cook for 2 to 3 minutes – or as long as the noodles call for. As soon as they are finished, begin serving the ramen in bowls. I like to add the noodles, corn, spinach, and chicken, then ladle some broth over top. Finish it off with sliced green onions, a drizzle of toasted sesame oil, and the soft boiled eggs – cut in half. Slide some nori on the side of the bowl to serve.
