Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Broth

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp miso paste
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

Serving

  • Ramen noodles, cooked according to package instructions
  • Cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts, chicken broth, soy sauce, miso paste, and minced garlic into the crockpot. Ensure the chicken is fully submerged in the broth to cook evenly.
  2. Slow Cook: Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on the low setting for 6 hours. This slow cooking process will tenderize the chicken and allow the broth to develop deep, rich flavors.
  3. Shred Chicken: After cooking, remove the chicken breasts from the crockpot and shred them using two forks until the meat is in small, tender pieces.
  4. Serve: Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot or ladle the broth into bowls. Place cooked ramen noodles in each serving bowl and top with the hot broth and shredded chicken.
  5. Garnish and Enjoy: Sprinkle freshly chopped cilantro on top for a fresh, herbal finish before serving.

Notes

  • For a spicier broth, add a teaspoon of chili paste or sliced jalapeños during the slow cooking step.
  • You can substitute chicken breasts with thighs for a richer flavor and juicier meat.
  • Use low-sodium soy sauce to control salt levels in the broth.
  • This recipe can be adapted to Instant Pot by cooking on high pressure for 15 minutes and then shredding the chicken.
  • Leftover broth can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
