Fancied-Up Chicken Ramen Noodles

This is a great way to refresh your leftover baked chicken after it's been in the fridge for a couple of days. And it's also an inexpensive meal (yes college students, I'm thinking of you too) that you can make into a fancy meal. This is a single person meal, so increase your quantities to fit your family size.

Servings: 1

Total time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon canola oil

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• 1 teaspoon minced ginger

• ½ small red bell pepper, cored and thinly sliced

• 1 package instant ramen (preferably chicken flavored)

• ½ cooked chicken breast (about 3 ounces), bones and skin removed, shredded

• 1 head baby bok choy, cored and thinly sliced, lengthwise

Instructions

1. Heat the canola oil in a medium pot over medium heat.

2. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring often, until everything is fragrant and ginger is lightly browned about 30 seconds.

3. Add the bell pepper and cook, stirring, until the pepper starts to soften, about a minute.

4. Add the ramen noodles and the flavor pack it comes with, then add 1 cup of water.

5. Bring everything to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer and add the shredded chicken and sliced bok choy.

6. Simmer just until the chicken is heated through and the bok choy is wilted about 30 seconds. Serve immediately.
