4

Blend soaked chilies, 1/4 cup of the soaking liquid, onion-tomato mix, ground spices, chicken bouillon, and apple cider vinegar. Adjust salt as necessary.

5

In a large pot, mix chuck roast with blended sauce. Add beef broth to cover. Throw in cinnamon stick, onion, garlic, and bay leaves. Simmer until meat is tender (2.5 hours).

Cook ramen noodles according to package instructions. Then drain, and portion into servings per bowl.
