Baked Ramen Noodles

 I tried a recipe that baked Ramen noodles in a 450 oven on sheet pan covered with parchment paper that is sprayed with Pam after soaking the noodles in boiled water for 5 minutes, draining, and tossing them with cooking oil and salt. The noodles are spread over the sprayed parchment paper and cooked till crispy.

The recipe I used was for a Teriyaki chicken.  Chicken which was tossed with Teriyaki sauce, salt and pepper is layered on top of the noodles then drizzled with more Teriyaki sauce and baked for just 10 minutes before adding vegetables like broccoli florets and/or carrots which have been tossed with oil, salt, and pepper then baked for 25 to 30 minutes till noodles are crisp.

I overcooked the chicken slightly because I cut it thin and pounded it with a meat hammer but the results were wonderful.  I loved the noodles and can tweak the sauce, seasoning, and other ingredients in future dishes.  For example, substituting shrimp for chicken and using a garlic sauce.  I would cook the noodles longer before adding the shrimp in the last 15 minutes.

(The seasoning packets that comes with the Ramen noodles can be used for broths or seasoning but were not used in this Teriyaki dish)


Another great combo is an Apple Dump cake using a Spice cake mix and adding Walnuts.

Another tweak:
I used the hard taco shells, seasoning, and sauce from a taco kit with strips of Chicken breasts (oven baked on sheet pan lined with parchment paper and cooking spray) and we liked it more than ground beef.
