Miso Ramen with Shredded Chicken and Spicy Ground Chicken Crumbles with homemade chicken stock
Two kinds of chicken in one bowl: thighs that cook in the broth and fall apart into tender pieces, and ground chicken fried until crisp and spicy. The cloudy miso broth ties them together and carries deep flavor without hours of cooking.
Put the chicken, the onion, carrot, celery, parsley, bay leaves and peppercorns and the water in a pot and bring to a boil. Skim off the foam that rises during the first 15 minutes with a spoon.
