Ramen Chicken Chopped Salad Recipe
Chopped Chicken Salad Ramen Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/2 boneless chicken thighs, fat removed and trimmed
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- pinch of sea salt & cracked pepper
- 2 cups romaine lettuce, shredded
- 1 cup red cabbage, finely shredded and diced

Note
Substitution
* Optional
Steps
Step 1
Bring a pot of water to a boil and add noodles. Once cooked to your satisfaction, drain and set aside. Should take no more than 4 minutes.
Once the noodles have cooled, do a rough chop to break them into smaller pieces.
Step 2
Lightly spray the chicken thighs and season.
Step 3
Set a carbon steel pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, spray with oil and then add the chicken. Sear on each side for 8 – 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Note: remember that chicken thighs are a fattier piece of meat, not as lean as chicken breasts, so the cook time will be slightly longer.
Step 4
Prep the veggies and add to a large mixing bowl and toss. Then add the noodles and toss.
Step 5
Add your choice of dressing, or use the Dijon anchovy dressing below, and fold and toss the salad together.
Step 6
Enjoy the salad with the chicken thighs (or your choice of protein).
