Instructions
- 1. Pat the chicken thighs dry and season lightly with black pepper.
- 2. Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil, gently add the eggs, and cook for 7 minutes for soft centers. Transfer the eggs to cold water, peel, and set aside.
- 3. In a large pot, warm 1 tablespoon of the Ramen Infused Olive Oil Blend over medium heat. Add the garlic, ginger, and mushrooms, then cook until fragrant and lightly softened, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- 4. Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, mirin, and rice vinegar. Add the chicken thighs and bring the pot to a gentle simmer.
- 5. Simmer the chicken until cooked through and tender, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the chicken to a cutting board and shred it into bite-size pieces.
- 6. Return the shredded chicken to the pot, then add the ramen noodles and cook just until tender, stirring gently so they do not overcook.
- 7. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of Ramen Infused Olive Oil Blend, taste the broth, and adjust salt if needed.
- 8. Divide the noodles, chicken, mushrooms, and broth between 4 bowls. Top with halved eggs, scallions, nori, sesame seeds, and serve hot.
Notes
Add the olive oil blend at the end as well as at the base of the broth so the savory aroma stays vivid in the finished bowl. If you want a deeper bowl, let the broth sit off heat for 2 minutes before serving so the flavors settle together. The recipe uses real home-kitchen technique and keeps the ramen straightforward without overcomplicating the build.
