Soy Broth Ramen (Low-Calorie)
Chicken breast poached and shredded into a lightened soy-based ramen broth simmered with kombu, garlic, and scallion, poured over noodles. Finished with wilted spinach, bean sprouts, and a soft-boiled egg, this bowl trims oil and sodium while keeping the umami-forward, savory ramen character intact.
