Key Ingredients to Make Seafood Ramen

• SHRIMP – You can use fresh or frozen shrimp for this recipe. Be sure to peel and devein them first!
• MUSHROOMS – Use sliced mushrooms. I like baby portobello best myself!
• CARROT – Grate the carrot so it’s easier to cook and eat.
• GARLIC – For added savory flavor, of course.
• BROTH – I personally like using low-sodium broth, but you can use your preference.
• GINGER – For a bit of bite that I just adore.
• SOY SAUCE – I love the umami flavor of soy sauce too!
• SESAME OIL – Nutty and earthy, you’ll only need 1 teaspoon.
• OLIVE OIL – To sauté the mushrooms, carrot, and garlic before adding the broth.
• RAMEN NOODLES – Use the noodles, ditch the seasoning packet!
• GREEN ONIONS & CILANTRO – For your garnish.

Instructions to Make Shrimp Ramen

PREPARE THE VEGETABLES: Sauté the mushrooms and carrot in olive oil in a large pot until they start to soften. Add the garlic and cook (while you stir) for about 30 seconds.

INCORPORATE THE LIQUIDS: Add the broth, soy sauce, and sesame oil to the pot along with the ginger. Cover and bring the mixture to a boil.

ADD THE NOODLES AND SHRIMP: When the broth begins to boil, add the noodles and shrimp, cover, and allow to boil for several minutes.

Garnish your seafood ramen recipe with chopped green onions and cilantro and enjoy!

Spicy Shrimp Ramen Soup

And for all of you that like to spice things up…no problem! Just add your favorite hot sauce to your ramen soup recipe. Sriracha, Tabasco, or even red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper will do the trick.

This soup doesn’t make a lot of broth as seen in the pictures, so if you want more “soup,” double the broth/stock you use — as well as the grated ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil.

You can also double the vegetables to add more bulk and flavor. There is plenty enough shrimp in the soup already that you can get away with not doubling it. This dish is so versatile — it’s one of the reasons why I believe it’s one of the best shrimp ramen recipes out there!

And if you don’t want to grate your own ginger, I like to buy these tubes of Stir-in Ginger Paste. So much easier!
