Peanut Sriracha Top Ramen

Makes ~4 meals given 2 cups of rice and 1 pound of chicken.

Ingredients

Go to the store or have available:

  • 5+ scallions (green onions. a pack from the produce section is what I use)
  • garlic (to taste. Paste or diced, doesn't matter)
  • Bok Choy
  • 3 packages Top Ramen
  • Broccoli
  • Unsalted or salted peanuts (I use just 1/3 to 1/2 cup)
  • Some type of oil. I most commonly use peanut or extra light olive oil. If you want to make it very spicy substitute some amount of chili oil.

For the sauce:

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (I use reduced sodium)
  • 1/2 cup chunky peanut butter
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons siricha
  • < 1 tablespoon oil to smooth the sauce
  • < 1 tablespoon hot water to incorporate the sauce

Instructions

  • In a cereal bowl (or equivalent size) mix all the sauce ingredients except the oil and water. Once its evenly mixed, add the oil, then finally the hot water.
  • Clean + dice the scallion. Separate the white parts, keep the green parts for garnish later.
  • Cook top ramen, just plain
  • Remove the top ramen, and water (saving some!)
  • Throw in garlic, scallion whites, some oil, cook until beginning to brown
  • Add bok choy, broccoli, cooking until just beginning to soften
  • Add the sauce
  • Add the top ramen
  • Add any water back to make certain it moves well
  • Serve!
