Description
A delicious and comforting bowl of ramen featuring Trader Joe’s Beef Birria.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package Trader Joe’s Beef Birria (meat + consommé)
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 large eggs
- 2 packs ramen noodles (seasoning packets discarded)
- Fresh cilantro (chopped (for garnish))
- Lime wedges
- White onion (finely diced (for garnish))
Instructions
- Add the Trader Joe’s birria and chicken broth to a medium sized saucepan over medium-low heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Once the mixture comes to a simmer, mix in the lime juice just before removing from heat.
- Meanwhile, bring a medium saucepan of water to a rolling boil. Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water and start a timer for 6½ minutes for soft-boiled eggs with jammy centers.
- After the eggs have cooked for 3 minutes, add the ramen noodles to the same pot and gently separate them with tongs or chopsticks. Continue cooking until the timer reaches 6½ minutes total and the noodles are tender.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the eggs and transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking. Drain the noodles well and divide them between two serving bowls.
- Pour the birria mixture over the ramen noodles and garnish with cilantro, lime wedges, and diced white onion.
Notes
- For a more intense flavor, let the birria simmer for a longer time.
- Adjust the lime juice to taste.
