Chicken Teriyaki Ramen

Jump to Recipe

We are a soup all year kind of family and I think more people are than they might realize. There is more to soup than warming your belly up with its cold out, there is something about it making you feel warm from a hug. This Chicken Teriyaki Ramen is going to do just that for your family, no matter what time of the year you make it. The rich flavors of the soy, ginger and garlic mixed with the sweet tang of the teriyaki sauce is undeniable and the slightly jammy egg just sets it all off.

Yes….I used a store bought teriyaki sauce, don’t come for me. I do absolutely love to make sauces but I have yet to master the teriyaki and so I don’t want to give you a subpar attempt when there are some great ones on the shelf – or maybe you have your own recipe. Whatever works for you and your kitchen. I like to use the Kikkoman® Original Takumi Collection Teriyaki Sauce for this recipe. Its got a great flavor and it doesn’t burn up in the oven like some other ones that have too much sugar in them.

I have a very particular way of boiling eggs but it works for me and that’s why I am sticking with it. The first part is adding the eggs to rolling boiling water and not at the start of the boil. This allows you to control the cook time more effectively. The second part is moving them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. You can make a perfect 7 minutes jammy egg and it will turn to full hard boil if you just remove it from the boiling water and let it sit. I also find that this process helps them peel fairly easily. To peel them, I usually tap each end on the counter to crack it, then rub back and forth between my palms and egg will come right out.

Plating ramen is almost as much of an art as making! I have learned that making the noodles separate helps them stay intact in the soup better. It also helps you with good portioning. That’s why I like to start with the noodle on bottom and build up from there. It also makes it a little easier to customize when you don’t just put everything into one pot.
