Ingredients
- Duck legs
- 2
- Salt
- to taste
- Black pepper
- to taste
- Chicken broth
- 6 cups
- Soy sauce
- 1/4 cup
- Mirin
- 2 tablespoons
- Ginger
- 1 inch, peeled and sliced
- Garlic
- 3 cloves, minced
- Ramen noodles
- 2 packets
- Baby bok choy

- Green onions
- 2, sliced
- Soft-boiled eggs
- 2, halved
- Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon
- Chili oil
- 1 tablespoon
- Toasted sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Season the duck legs with salt and pepper and place them on a baking sheet.
- Roast the duck legs in the oven for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily pulls away from the bone. Let the duck legs cool slightly before shredding the meat. Set aside.
- In a large pot, combine the chicken broth, soy sauce, mirin, sliced ginger, and minced garlic. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce the heat to low and let the broth simmer for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Strain the broth and return it to the pot.
- While the broth is simmering, cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Blanch the baby bok choy in a separate pot of boiling water for about 2 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- To assemble the ramen bowls, divide the cooked noodles between two bowls. Ladle the hot broth over the noodles.
- Top each bowl with shredded duck meat, blanched baby bok choy, sliced green onions, and half a soft-boiled egg.
- Finish each bowl with a drizzle of sesame oil and chili oil, and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately and enjoy your authentic Japanese dining experience!
Tips
- For an even richer broth, consider making a homemade duck broth using the bones from the duck legs. Just boil the bones with some vegetables and spices, strain, and use in place of the chicken broth.
