What you need

  • chicken: I prefer using boneless, skinless chicken breasts for this recipe, but boneless, skinless chicken thighs will also work. Just cut it to a certain size.
  • ramen: You will need 3 blocks of packaged ramen. No need to pre-cook. Place in a casserole dish straight from the package. Since you will be making your own sauce for this casserole, you don’t need the spice jar that comes in the ramen package.
  • vegetable: I used broccoli and chopped red peppers, but honestly, any vegetable stir-fry would be delicious! Edamame, peas, onions, carrots, the options are endless!
  • sauce: The sauces for this grilled ramen recipe are primarily Korean barbecue and a few other pantry staples. It’s simple yet very tasty.
