Mirin Chicken with Ramen Noodles for Souper Sundays
From Noodle Fusion; a tasty little soup.
Chicken (or Quorn cutlets) is marinated with a reduction of mirin, soy sauce, (vegetable) broth, & sugar. Bring vegetarian dashi (sans bonito flakes) to boil, cook ramen for a couple minutes, drain, cover with foil, reserve broth.
The chicken or chicken-replacement-product is seared on each side, cooled & sliced.
Broth is boiled again, put noodles in bowls, pour broth over, top with chicken (or whatever), garnish...we used grated ginger & daikon matchsticks.
Skipped: black mushrooms
It's got some flavor, the noodles are fun, just a good soup.
Here you go, Deb! More soup for your Sunday.

Feel Better Soup
Last weekend, Matt came down with...something. I don't know if chicken soup really is the cure-all to end-all, but I'd recently made a smoked chicken stock (remains of a whole chicken Matt had smoked with many vegetables & herbs), so it seemed...

Wonton Noodles With Chicken & Thai Peanut Sauce
Oh hey...look! Another Asian noodle dish. What are the odds... This is a recipe that called for spaghetti (heck, it's in the name), but I have issues with thin pastas so we opted to use a wonton noodle instead. Turns out, it wouldn't have mattered....
