Chicken
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Ginger Glaze
- 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey or brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
Ramen Noodles
- 2 packs of ramen noodles (discard seasoning packets)
- 4 cups water or chicken broth
- Prepare the Ginger Glaze: In a small bowl, combine grated ginger, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and minced garlic. Stir well to create a flavorful glaze.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Add to the skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through. During the last few minutes, brush the ginger glaze over the chicken to coat it evenly and allow it to caramelize slightly.
- Prepare the Ramen Noodles: In a separate pot, bring water or chicken broth to a boil. Add ramen noodles and cook according to package instructions, usually 3-4 minutes, until tender. Drain the noodles and set aside.
- Combine and Serve: Slice the glazed chicken into thin strips. Divide cooked ramen noodles into bowls and top with sliced ginger glazed chicken. Optionally, drizzle any remaining ginger glaze over the top. Garnish with sliced green onions or sesame seeds if desired.
Notes
- For extra flavor, use chicken broth instead of water to cook the ramen noodles.
- You can add vegetables like bok choy or mushrooms to the ramen for added nutrition.
- Adjust the amount of ginger and soy sauce to taste for milder or stronger flavors.
- Use low sodium soy sauce to reduce sodium content if preferred.
