Preparation

  2. Pour in chicken broth, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Let it simmer while you prepare the other ingredients.
Cooking
  1. Cook ramen noodles separately according to package instructions to keep them from becoming mushy.
  2. In the last two minutes of simmering, toss in the shredded chicken to warm it through.
  3. Prepare toppings by soft boiling the eggs for 7 minutes, then placing them in cold water before peeling.
Assembly
  1. In each serving bowl, place a portion of noodles, ladle hot broth over them, and add in shredded chicken.
  2. Top with soft boiled eggs, fresh spinach, sliced mushrooms, corn, chili oil, and green onions.

Notes

Store broth and chicken together, noodles separate, and toppings separate for easy meal prep. Reheat broth and chicken before serving and add noodles as needed.
