Ingredients

  • 8 oz ground chicken (or tofu/tempeh for vegetarian)
  • 1 tbsp neutral cooking oil
  • 6 oz shiitake mushrooms, stems removed
  • 2 shallots, minced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp freshly grated ginger
  • 3 tbsp white miso paste
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp hot chili oil (adjust to taste)
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 9 oz ramen noodles (fresh or dried)
  • 1 cup sweet corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • 3 soft-boiled eggs
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Heat a large pot over medium heat, add oil, and cook ground chicken (or tofu/tempeh) until browned. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, sauté mushrooms until golden. Add shallots, garlic, and ginger, and cook until fragrant.
  3. Stir in miso paste, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili oil. Pour in broth and simmer gently for 20 minutes.
  4. Bring broth to a boil, add noodles, and cook until al dente. Return protein to the pot and stir in corn.
  5. Ladle ramen into bowls and top with soft-boiled eggs, green onions, sesame seeds, and extra chili oil if desired.

Notes

  • Keep noodles and broth stored separately to prevent sogginess when saving leftovers.
  • Adjust chili oil for spice level—reduce for mild or increase for extra heat.
  • Red miso gives a stronger, richer broth but is saltier.
  • Soft-boiled eggs: boil room-temperature eggs for 6 minutes, then chill in ice bath before peeling.
  • Customize toppings with bok choy, spinach, bean sprouts, or shrimp.
