My best friend recently moved to Japan and she's been sending me all the food pics. I am HERE FOR IT! She sent me a recipe for Peanut Butter Ramen and I'm obsessed! I've tweaked her recipe a bit because sometimes you just can't find all of the ingredients she uses in Japan here in Alaska, but it's SO GOOD none-the-less. Also, I eyeball all of the ingredients so feel free to add more or less of something as you see fit.
2 tsp. Sesame oil
1 tsp. granulated garlic (or a couple cloves of fresh garlic, minced)
1 tsp. ginger (powdered or fresh minced)
1 tablespoon dehydrated onion
1 tablespoon peanut butter
2 tablespoons coconut aminos or soy sauce
1 1/4 cups chicken broth
2 ramen cakes
pinch of hot pepper flakes, optional
Optional: Any protein you enjoy. Sometimes I like to add some spicy shrimp. (I simply season my shrimp with some salt and a tiny pinch of red pepper flakes and air fry until done.) Thinly sliced spicy chicken breast would also be tasty. A soft boiled egg. Scallions. Sesame seeds. Chopped peanuts. Sprouts.
In a small saucepan or small skillet, add the sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and onion. Sauté 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Add the peanut butter and allow it to mostly melt.
Add the coconut aminos (or soy sauce) and chicken broth.
Bring it to a boil and add the ramen cakes (toss the seasoning packet). Once the ramen noodles are cooked to your liking, transfer to a bowl. Enjoy as-is or top with your favorite protein and garnishes. Serves one. Double or triple as necessary but go easy on the peanut butter.
