Quick Ramen Soup

I know it has been a long time but I thought I would share this quick ramen recipe! I was totally craving some asian delights in a bowl with extreme flavor and I did not want to buy it. I knew I could make ramen that was restaurant quality in my own home. I am not talking about doctoring your own pack of noodles. I am talking about flavorful broth made with vegetables and minimal ingredients.

What you will need:

2 Bone Broth (Chicken)

1 inch of Ginger cut in chunks

4 cloves of Garlic

4 Cut Stalks of Green Onions

1 Tsp of Fish Sauce

1 Tbsp of Maggi flavoring

2 Cups of Water

2 Boiled Chicken Breast Boiled

1 Package of Raw Thinly Sliced Beef

Pound of Large Stemmed Shrimp

1 Box of Ramen Noodles

4 Halved Hard Boiled Eggs

1 Chopped Green Onion

1 Bag of Shredded Carrots

1 Pint of Brown Thinly Sliced Mushrooms

1 Package of Bean Sprouts

The Broth:

In a large stock pot add bone broth, ginger, garlic, and green onions. Allow to simmer slowly for 15 minutes. Then add fish sauce, Maggi flavoring, and 2 cups of water. Allow the broth to continue to simmer for 20 minutes on low. After 20 minutes,discard the ginger, garlic, and green onion from the broth.

Noodles:

While the broth is simmering cook noodles as directed on the box. I always stop cooking them 1 minute shorter than instructed for that classic ramen texture. After cooking shock them in cold water to stop the cooking.

Build the Bowl:

Place the noodles in the bottom of the bowl. Then add mushrooms, carrots, bean sprouts, chicken, shrimp, and beef. Add these items in the corners of the bowl to make sure you can see the contents. Then ladle the hot broth on top. Fill the bowl to the top to cover the contents. Then place the halved egg and green onions on top. You can add some of your favorite condiments like siracha or hoison to give the broth a little extra flavor.

However, you should taste the broth before adding the hot sauce to really get that FLAVOR!

If you make this ramen please #jdelawcious on social media or @jdelawcious on IG.

#NoFail Seared T-Bone Steak

Beef J. Delawcious

Steak! Steak! Steak!

This is by far the easiest way to cook a seared T-Bone steak. This #NoFail Seared T-Bone Steak reverse sear method will give you doneness that transition through the meat evenly. Leaving you with a restaurant quality steak. It just a few simple steps to get your steak house steak at home. Let’s get started…

What you will need:

T-Bone 1 1/2 Inch Thick

Salt to taste or 1/8 tsp

Pepper to taste or 1/8 tsp

2 Garlic Cloves

2 Sprigs Rosemary

2 Sprigs Thyme

1 Tbsp Butter

1 Tbsp of Canola Oil

Tools:

Cast Iron Skillet

Tongs

Wire Rack and Sheet Pan

Instructions:

Preheat Oven 200F.

Dry the steak from any moisture. Then salt and pepper the meat on both sides. Place the meat into the oven and bake slowly for 35 minutes. This will allow the meat temperature rise slowly ensuring an even doneness for your steak. Place your cast iron skillet into the oven as well to get the pan heated for searing.

After the 33 minutes, remove the cast iron skillet from the oven and add canola oil inside. Place on the stove on medium high heat until the oil sees a smoke point. The oil will give off tiny puffs of smoke when moved. When the 35 minutes has passed remove the steak from the oven and place it into the hot skillet. Add butter, rosemary, garlic, and thyme. Allow the meat to make contact with the pan for at least 2 minutes each side.

While cooking on each side, continue to baste the meat with the flavor oil. Baste until your desired doneness. My method will allow you a medium doneness. If you would like a more doneness allow 4 minutes each side doing the same technique. Once the steak has cooked for 2 minutes each side remove it. Allow to rest for 2 minutes.

Once it is rested you can cut and serve. This steak can go with anything. I made mine with seared portobello mushrooms and pepper bacon wrapped asparagus.

I hope you give this recipe a try, and I love you for cooking.

Happy Cooking!
