Paitan Ramen is very popular as the soup itself is less oily and very simple. I personally love to eat it after eating heavy and oily food to make my stomach calm. I imagine when you cooked roast chicken, you cook too much and can’t eat them all up. Let’s use those roast chicken and remake it for Paitan Ramen.
Since I was left with some roast chicken, I tried making a sort of chicken paitan broth. It would typically require many hours to cook, but because the chicken is already flavored, it was quite easy. I only used salt for flavoring this time, but I suggest adding other flavors, such as soy sauce, if you’d like.
