Ingredients

For the chicken:

• 2 chicken breasts (with skin on)
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter

For the ramen broth:

• 2 tbsp Miso Sesame Ramen paste
• 400ml cold water
• ½ cup shiitake mushrooms
• 1 pack Precooked Ramen Noodles

For the jammy eggs (optional):

• 2 medium eggs
• Saucepan with cold water
• Bowl of cold water and ice

For serving:

• ½ cup green onion, sliced
• Black Roasted Sesame Seeds
• White Roasted Sesame Seeds

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 190ºC / 375ºF. Melt the butter in a large oven-safe skillet on the hob over a medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet with the skin-side down. Cook for roughly 5-7 minutes until the skin is a golden brown, before flipping it over and cooking the other side for 5 more minutes, so that both sides are seared golden.
2. Transfer the skillet to the oven, and roast for 15-20 minutes to cook the chicken through. Then set aside on a plate covered with foil until you are ready to assemble the dish.
3. To make the ramen broth, mix 2 tbsp miso sesame ramen paste with 400ml of water in a saucepan, and add the mushrooms. Bring this to a gentle simmer for 5 minutes – after 3 minutes, add in the precooked ramen noodles.
4. If you are adding the jammy eggs, prepare these by bringing a pan of water to the boil, just enough to cover the eggs. Gently lower the eggs into the boiling water (these need to be cold from the fridge before boiling them, to ensure they keep their soft boiled, jammy centre). Let these simmer for 7 minutes, before removing these and placing them directly into the bowl of ice water, which stops the cooking process. Wait at least 5 minutes before peeling them. Slice these in half length-wise, and set them aside until ready to serve.
5. To assemble the dish; share the ramen noodles broth and mushrooms between two bowls. Next, add all the toppings; cut the chicken breasts into slices and lay these across the noodles, along with adding some of the green onion, black and white sesame seeds, and sit the jammy eggs on top too if you have included those in the dish.
6. Serve immediately, and enjoy!
