This Panera Broth Bowl recipe is perfection and spot on! These have disappeared from the Panera menu but they’re still in our minds and now can be in our belly! I was one of the FIRST to try them and the blog post review went viral (revisit the initial review here).

These Panera Broth bowls have a complex broth – which means – a lot of ingredients – but it needs all of those flavors to meld together and make that yumminess you love. Thankfully – it doesn’t take long – and hey – make a double batch and enjoy more!

What’s in a Panera Broth Bowl?

There are multiple components that go into this dish – let’s break them down:

In the Bowl

In the Broth

  • soy sauce
  • Gochujang (or red thai chili paste)
  • Worcestershire sauce

  • Garlic Powder
  • Lime juice
  • Water

Extra Ingredients

  • Noodles (Panera uses Soba but I like Ramen or Rice Noodles better)
  • Sesame seeds
  • Fresh Cilantro

How do you make the Panera Broth Bowls?

  1. Marinate chicken in Mojo Criollo marinade overnight.
  2. Cook chicken – I recommend air fryer at 350 for 12 minutes – or you can oven bake at 350 for 30 minutes
  3. Saute onions in sesame oil over medium heat. Add mushroom and carrots after about 2 minutes. Add cabbage after another 2 minutes. Add garlic last and cook until fragrant (about 2 minutes.) Remove from heat and transfer to a separate bowl. (Resist the urge to season/salt the veggies – there’s enough salt in the broth.)
  4. Cook ramen (or Soba) according to package directions. Be sure to keep 3/4 cup pasta water.
  5. Prepare broth in a small saucepan by whisking together soy sauce, gochujang, worcestershire, ginger and garlic. Bring to a simmer while noodles cook. Continue whisking and cook down 2-3 minutes. Add 3/4 cup pasta water to thin broth. Depending on how much broth you want, you can also add the extra water as needed. Heat through.
  6. To build bowl, combine noodles, sauteed vegetables and spinach in serving bowl.
  7. Place sliced chicken over top of noodles and pour hot broth over top.
  8. Garnish with cilantro and sesame seeds.
