Instructions
Heat 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil in a pot over medium-high. Add scallions, ginger, and garlic; sauté 2 minutes. Stir in broth and 3 Tbsp. soy sauce; simmer 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk together maple syrup, miso, sesame oil, 1 Tbsp. lime juice, and remaining 1 Tbsp. soy sauce for the sauce; brush on bok choy and reserve remaining sauce for the chicken.
Sear bok choy in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until lightly charred on each side, 3–5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Add remaining 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil to skillet and heat over medium. Add mushrooms; cook until softened, 3–5 minutes. Season mushrooms with salt and pepper and transfer to a plate.
Toss chicken with remaining sauce; sauté in skillet over medium heat until heated through, 2–3 minutes.
Stir noodles into broth mixture and simmer 3 minutes, stirring to break up noodles. Stir in remaining 1 Tbsp. lime juice.
Top servings of ramen with bok choy, mushrooms, chicken, and scallion greens.

Add layers of flavor to the ramen by using the sauce on the bok choy and the chicken.

Simmering the aromatics in the broth, before adding the noodles, will amp up the flavor of the dish.
