Ingredients:
Chicken and Broth:
- 2 split chicken breasts (skin-on, bone-in)
- 3 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil, plus extra for coating
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1½ cups chopped yellow onion (about 1 large onion)
- 2 cups sliced carrots (½-inch thick, 3-5 carrots)
- 3 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and minced
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced (3 cloves)
- 10 cups chicken stock (preferably homemade)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Noodles and Veggies:
- 1 (3-ounce) package ramen noodles (discard seasoning packet)
- 8 ounces baby bok choy, trimmed and cleaned
- 6 scallions, diagonally sliced
Instructions:
1. Roast the Chicken:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place chicken breasts skin-side up on a sheet pan, rub with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 30-40 minutes, until fully cooked. Let cool slightly, then remove the skin and bones. Shred the meat into large pieces.
2. Prepare the Broth:
Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-low heat. Sauté the onion for 6-8 minutes until tender. Add carrots and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Stir in ginger and garlic, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add chicken stock, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
3. Assemble the Soup:
Add the shredded chicken and soy sauce to the broth. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Stir in ramen noodles and bok choy stems, simmering for 2-3 minutes until tender.
Off the heat, add bok choy leaves and scallions. Serve hot, garnished as desired.
Make Ahead Tip:
Prepare the soup base ahead of time (up to the step before adding noodles and vegetables). Reheat, then add noodles, bok choy, and scallions for a fresh, flavorful finish.
