Equipment

  • Medium sauce pan
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • slotted spoon or spatula
  • 2 noodle bowls or bowls large enough to accommodate noodles, shrimp, and 2 cups of broth

Ingredients
  

  • 2 teaspoon sesame oil vegetable oil will work in a pinch
  • 2 teaspoon garlic chili paste
  • 2 teaspoon minced garlic about 3 cloves
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 cups low sodium chicken broth or stock
  • 2 packages dry ramen noodles discard flavor packet if included
  • 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger or ginger paste
  • 2 eggs
  • 8-12 large shrimp cleaned, peeled, and deveined

Garnish options - I recommend choosing 2-4.

  • fresh cilantro
  • jalapeno peppers, sliced thin
  • green onion
  • corn kernels
  • mushrooms, sliced thin
  • spinach
  • sesame seeds
  • lime wedges

Instructions
 

  • In a medium sauce pan, over medium heat add the sesame oil and allow to heat for about 30 seconds. Add the ginger, garlic chili paste, garlic, and black pepper to the oil. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the chicken broth or stock to the pan and bring to a boil. While the broth or stock is coming up to a boil, prepare your chosen garnishes.
  • Add the ramen noodles, cook approximately 80% and then remove using the slotted spoon or spatula to the bowls you plan to enjoy your ramen from and set aside. Approximately, two minutes.
  • Add the raw shrimp to the boiling broth or stock to poach. This will take about 2-3 minutes. Remove the shrimp with the slotted spoon and add to the bowls with the ramen.
  • Crack two eggs into the boiling broth as far away from each other as possible and allow the eggs to poach, 3-4 minutes will produce a runny yolk, add more time if you prefer a harder yolk. Remove from the broth and add one egg to each bowl.
  • Turn off the heat and pour half of the broth into each bowl. Allow the broth to finish cooking the ramen for 1-2 minutes, top with your chosen garnishes and enjoy!
