Baked Ramen Noodles & Chicken
Ingredients
For the teriyaki sauce
- ¾ cup coconut aminos
- ¼ cup orange juice
- 1 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 thumb ginger minced
- 1 clove garlic minced
- Salt and pepper
- 1 tablespoon arrowroot starch
For the ramen bake
- 3 bricks gluten-free ramen
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 lb chicken breast cubed
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 F and grease an 8x8" baking dish.
- To make the teriyaki sauce, combine the ingredients in a small pot and whisk well. Heat over medium-low heat for 4-5 minutes or until thick. If a thicker sauce is desired, combine about 1-2 tsp of arrowroot starch with chicken broth and add it to the sauce to thicken further. If a thinner sauce is desired, add a splash of chicken broth to thin out the sauce. Set aside.
- Soak the ramen in hot water for about 15 min or until soft. Separate with tongs and strain.
- Add the ramen to the baking dish along with the veggies, chicken breast, salt and pepper, and teriyaki sauce (reserving about 3-4 tbsp of the sauce on the side). Toss to coat.
- Bake in the oven for about 35 min, tossing halfway through. Chicken should be 165 F.
- Serve topped the reserved teriyaki sauce and with green onion.

Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
I’m looking into make this soon, however I don’t own a 8×8 baking dish, just a 8×8 baking pan. Do you think this would work?
Should probably work!
You call for chicken broth in the instructions but there’s none mentioned in the ingredient list.
Hi Sunny! Sorry about that, we’ll update! You only need 1 tbsp of broth, or even water. Hope this helps 🙂
I wanted this to be ready a bit faster, so I cooked the chicken & veggies in the skillet most of the way and then popped it in the oven for 10 minutes. It was delicious and reheated well. I threw some coconut aminos on it before I put it in the microwave to give it a little more sauce.
Thank you Baleigh! So glad you enjoyed 🙂
I’m not sure what happened, but the noodles turned to mush and were slimy. We could not eat them. I used the same ones linked here. I don’t know if 15 minutes of soaking was too long, or if the premade Primal Kitchen teriyaki sauce I used was too thin and so the noodles kept cooking in too much liquid. I would like to try it again with the homemade sauce, but I’m afraid to now.
Any thoughts?
Sorry that happened! The premade sauce may have been the issue, I haven’t used that so that may be it? Could also be your oven temp. I would soak the noodles for less time and then try the homemade sauce instead!
Is there a way to make this with precooked chicken? Like if had frozen cooked chicken breast chunks, would you make the recipe the same way?
You can, you’d just cut the cook time down or add the chicken halfway through!
This looks delicious! Do you just pour the veggies in frozen or do you have to heat them up first?
I use frozen veggies that are defrosted/sit on the counter for a minute because frozen veggies are preblanced so they cook up nicer in the oven.
As someone who cannot eat Chinese food out (too many allergens and oils for my sensitive tummy), this was DIVINE! A definite repeat and addition to our favorite meal choices.
Satisfying all the built-up Chinese food cravings over the years: a mix of orange chicken, teriyaki chicken, chow mien, and chop suey. We doubled the recipe and threw it in a 9×13 pan- tossing it every 15 minutes for 45 minutes total (until the chicken temped at 165).
So glad you enjoyed!!
I am curious, do you cover this with foil while you bake it so the ramen does not get crunchy?
You can cover it for sure, I just like the crisp noodles, so don’t.
I’m curious how much sauce you recommend if we use a pre-made one?
a little over a cup!
I use corn starch, so mine isn’t soy free, but still a really good recipe and comes out amazing! This dish lasts me, as a single college student, about 3-4 meals 🙂
yum!!
Please tell me how this cooks in 35 min mine has been in for over 50 and the chicken is reading at 155.
I would try cutting your chicken into smaller cubes for it to cook faster.
Fast and easy! I loved how easy this was to put together. I had all the ingredients on hand. I am looking forward to the leftovers. Will definitely make again!
Yay, so glad you enjoyed!!
Soooo excited to try this!!
Any chance this can also be frozen once prepared?
Haven’t tried, let me know if you do!
Looks delicious! Could you think you could do this as a freezer meal? I’ve just never tried freezing ramen before.
I haven’t either! Let me know if you try
Looks delicious! I recently was diagnosed with Celiac disease and have been looking for a great gluten free ramen dish. Can you tell me which GF ramen noodles you used or where to find them? Thank you! Looking forward to making this!
