Steps

1

Eggs and Chicken

First, cook the eggs: bring water to a boil, carefully place the eggs in, and cook for 6-7 minutes for soft-boiled eggs. Remove, cool in an ice bath, then peel and halve them. Meanwhile, season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then pan-fry them in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove, let rest, then slice into thin strips.

2

Prepare Broth

In a large pot, heat a little sesame oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, and mirin. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Taste and season with more salt or soy sauce if needed.

3

Noodles and Veggies

While the broth simmers, cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions, usually 2-3 minutes. Drain them. In the last 2 minutes of the broth simmering, add the sliced shiitake mushrooms and fresh spinach to the broth to soften.

4

Serve

Divide the cooked ramen noodles into two large bowls. Ladle a generous amount of the flavorful broth with mushrooms and spinach over the noodles. Arrange the sliced chicken, halved soft-boiled eggs, and thinly sliced green onions on top. Garnish with nori sheets. Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh, warm ramen bowl!

Extra Tips

For the perfect soft-boiled egg, cook eggs for exactly 6-7 minutes, then immediately transfer them to an ice bath.

If you like it spicy, drizzle a little chili oil over your ramen when serving.

Vary the vegetables as you like; you can add bok choy or bean sprouts too.
