SLOW-COOKER CHICKEN AND RAMEN NOODLE SOUP

Steps:

• In 3 1/2 or 4-quart slow cooker, layer chicken thighs, carrots, celery, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts and contents of seasoning packet from soup mix. Pour broth over top.
• Cover; cook on Low setting for 7 to 8 hours.
• About 10 minutes before serving, remove chicken from slow cooker; place on large plate. Shred chicken with 2 forks; return to slow cooker and mix well. Coarsely break noodles from soup mix into soup. Stir in thawed sugar snap peas. Cover; cook an additional 10 minutes or until noodles are tender.
• Just before serving, stir in onions. If desired, add salt and pepper to taste.

SLOW-COOKER PORK RAMEN

Steps:

• In 5-quart Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add half the pork; cook 4 to 5 minutes, without moving, until browned and easily releases from the bottom. Turn and continue cooking 2 to 4 minutes or until browned. Transfer pork to 5- to 6-quart slow cooker; repeat with remaining pork.
• Reduce heat to medium; add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to Dutch oven. Add mushrooms, green onion whites and salt to Dutch oven. Cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until mushrooms release juices and turn brown. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the gingerroot and the garlic; cook 30 seconds. Cover and refrigerate remaining green onion greens and gingerroot until later.
• Slowly add broth, stirring and scraping to remove any brown bits from bottom. Transfer broth mixture to slow cooker with pork. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 8 to 10 hours or until pork is tender.
• Transfer pork to cutting board. With sharp knife, cut pork into bite-size chunks, removing and discarding any remaining fat. Using spoon, skim off and discard any fat from surface of broth. Return pork to slow cooker and stir in soy sauce and remaining 1 tablespoon gingerroot. Cover; cook 15 to 20 minutes or until heated through.
• Cook ramen noodles as directed on package; drain. To serve, divide noodles evenly among individual bowls. Ladle broth and pork over noodles, dividing evenly. Serve with remaining green onion greens; top each bowl with desired toppings.

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN RAMEN WITH BOK CHOY AND MISO

Steps:

• Put the chicken legs in a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker, and crumble the miso on top. Add the scallions, garlic cloves, shiitake mushrooms (if using) and 6 cups water. Stir well to combine. Cook until the chicken is tender, at least 4 hours and up to 6 hours on low. If it's more convenient, you can let the slow cooker switch to warm after 6 hours. The soup will hold on warm for about another 2 hours before the chicken begins to dry out.
• Switch the heat to high. With a slotted spoon, remove the chicken, scallions, garlic and shiitakes, and place in a bowl. Set aside to cool. Stir in kombu, bok choy, tamari and mirin. Cover and let cook until the bok choy is wilted and tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove and discard the kombu. Coarsely shred chicken meat into the soup, discarding the skin, bone, scallions, garlic and shiitakes. Taste the soup and whisk in a few more spoonfuls of miso or tamari, if desired.
• Divide the noodles among 4 or 5 bowls, and ladle the soup on top. Top each with sliced scallion, a halved soft boiled egg, sesame seeds and a piece of nori.
