Ingredients Needed:
Oil: I tend to use canola oil to sauté veggies, but you can use other kinds of cooking oil if you prefer. Vegetables: carrots add a slight sweetness and crunch to the dish, while red bell pepper brings a mild, sweet flavor and vibrant color to the ramen. Garlic & Ginger: fresh garlic cloves will add a depth of savory flavor to the dish, while freshly minced ginger adds a warm, spiced flavor that is irresistible. Red Chili Flakes: to bring a bit of heat to the dish. Adjust the amount to your personal preference. Chicken Broth: a flavorful broth that serves as the base of your ramen soup. I prefer to start with low sodium broth and add salt, but you can start with a pre-seasoned broth and adjust the added salt as necessary. Chicken: I use chicken breast meat here, but you can use other kinds of meat for a different flavor. If you have leftover Shredded Chicken, Instant Pot Shredded Chicken or Crockpot Shredded Chicken — even better! Green Onions: they add a fresh, sharp flavor that contrasts well with the rich broth. Salt: to season and enhance the overall flavor of the dish. Noodles: use instant ramen noodles, as they cook quickly and are great for absorbing all the delicious flavors. You don’t need the flavor packet for this recipe. Soy Sauce: adds umami flavor and depth to the dish without making it too salty. Chili Crunch: for an extra kick of heat and texture.
How to Make Easy Homemade Chicken Ramen Soup
This recipe is quick and easy to make, it’s ready in just 30 minutes! Full instructions are included in the recipe card below.
How do I store Ramen Noodle Soup?
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. It’s best to store the broth and noodles separately if possible, to prevent the noodles from becoming too soft. Simply reheat the broth, and add the noodles just before serving.
Can I freeze Ramen Noodle Soup?
If you have a larger batch, you can freeze the broth and chicken for up to 3 months. I’d recommend cooking fresh noodles when you’re ready to enjoy your ramen again. Thaw the broth in the refrigerator overnight and reheat it on the stove, or in the microwave, for the best results.
Easy Ramen Noodle Soup Variations
Make a vegetarian ramen noodle soup. Use vegetable broth and replace the chicken with tofu, or even add more vegetables like baby bok choy or sliced mushrooms for a vegetarian version. Turn up the heat. There are several ways to add more heat to this dish. Use chili oil to sauté the veggies, or add some chili oil on top of the dish at the end. Add some red pepper flakes, some diced chilis, or your favorite hot sauce to this dish for more spice. No ramen? Swap it out for spaghetti or spaghettini.
Serving Suggestions
For a complete Asian-inspired meal, top your flavorful soup with sesame seeds and pair it with sides like steamed edamame, gyoza (dumplings), a simple cucumber salad, or a soft boiled egg. Ramen Noodle Soup is best served in large bowls to give you ample space to arrange your toppings beautifully. You can even try some Air Fryer Broccoli or Air Fryer Green Beans on the side for more color and nutrients.
