For a totally different twist on ramen, try this recipe inspired by the French poulet roti (roast chicken). You definitely want to use leftover roast chicken for this one. And if you can find it, use the Roast Chicken flavored instant noodles as well. This soup has a nice rustic, earthy savoriness, elevated by fresh thyme and bright lemon.
Things You'll Need
- 1 package Roast Chicken or Chicken flavored ramen
- 1/3 cup leftover roast chicken
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup shredded carrots
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme.
Step 1
Boil the ramen according to package directions and add the seasoning packet.
Step 2
While the ramen is cooking, shred the chicken with two forks or by hand.
Step 3
When the ramen is finished, pour it into a bowl. Stir in the chicken, shredded carrots and lemon juice. Pull the thyme leaves off the sprigs and into the bowl. Serve and enjoy.
Tip
Raw shredded carrots add a nice textural contrast to the tender noodles and chicken. If you prefer your carrots softer and sweeter, throw them into the boiling water just before adding the noodles.
