  • Add the mushrooms and cook another 3 minutes.
  • Add the bok choy and cook another 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the soy sauce and mirin and cook an additional minute.
  • Add the stock and Knorr Zero Salt Bouillon and stir to combine. Simmer for 5 minutes.

NOODLES

  • Cook the ramen noodles in the boiling egg water for 2 - 3 minutes, until softened

ASSEMBLY

  • Divide the cooked noodles into 4 bowls.
  • Ladle the broth over the noodles and top with sliced chicken, shredded carrot, sliced green onion and sliced pepper (if desired). Finish with a soft boiled egg then serve and enjoy!
