Instructions
1

Begin by shredding the leftover chicken into bite-sized pieces and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of miso paste, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of soy sauce to create the glaze.

2

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once hot, add the shredded chicken and pour the miso-maple glaze over it.

3

Stir to coat the chicken evenly and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is heated through and slightly crispy.

4

Meanwhile, prepare the ramen noodles according to package instructions, usually boiling for about 3-4 minutes.

5

Drain the noodles and set aside. In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt to create the pickling liquid.

6

Add thinly sliced cucumbers and radishes to the pickling liquid and let them sit for at least 10 minutes.

7

For the broth, bring 4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth to a simmer in a pot. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil for extra flavor.

8

To assemble the bowls, divide the ramen noodles among serving bowls, ladle the hot broth over the noodles, and top with the glazed chicken.

9

Garnish with the pickled vegetables, sliced green onions, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Serve immediately and enjoy your gourmet leftover chicken ramen!
