Dump and Bake Ramen Ingredients

Overhead shot of labeled ingredients.
  • Ramen: This recipe uses 3 packs of ramen noodles, but only 1 seasoning packet. I used chicken ramen, but any flavor works!
  • Use the veggies you like! Some ideas: bell peppers, baby bok choy, bamboo shoots, red onion, mushrooms, baby corn, carrots, broccoli, snap or snow peas, sliced radish
  • Broth: You can use chicken, beef, or vegetable broth, depending on which you prefer.
  • Creamy Coconut Version: Replace 1 to 1½ cups of broth with canned coconut milk, then stir in 2 to 3 tablespoons of peanut butter. Top with roasted peanuts.
  • Chicken: You can use shredded rotisserie chicken or cooked chicken instead of raw chicken. If you do, take 20 minutes off the bake time.
  • Make it Vegetarian! Skip the seasoning packet, use vegetable broth, and swap the chicken for 16 ounces of diced tofu.
  • Can’t Handle The Heat? Leave out the sriracha sauce if you don’t like heat! No need to replace it with anything.
