Ingredients

Scale

For the Spicy Chicken:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into strips
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

For the Creamy Garlic Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1½ cups heavy cream (or half-and-half for a lighter version)
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for extra heat)
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

For the Ramen Bowl:

  • 2 packs ramen noodles (discard seasoning packets)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ cup sliced green onions
  • ½ cup shredded carrots (optional, for crunch)
  • 1 soft-boiled egg, halved (for topping)
  • Sesame seeds & nori strips, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Marinate & Cook the Spicy Chicken: In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, smoked paprika, chili powder, cayenne pepper, and black pepper. Add the sliced chicken and toss to coat. Let marinate for 10 minutes while you prepare the sauce. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes until golden and fully cooked. Set aside.
  2. Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring constantly. Add the salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, then let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, mixing until smooth. Remove from heat.
  3. Cook the Ramen Noodles: Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions. Drain, toss with 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and set aside.
  4. Assemble the Ramen Bowls: Divide the ramen noodles into serving bowls. Spoon the creamy garlic sauce over the noodles. Top with the fiery chicken, green onions, shredded carrots, and a soft-boiled egg. Garnish with sesame seeds and nori strips. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can adjust the cayenne pepper to control the spice level according to your preference.
  • For a lighter sauce, substitute half-and-half for heavy cream.
  • Discard the seasoning packets from the ramen as they contain added salt and flavors that may clash with this recipe.
  • Soft-boiling eggs: boil eggs for 6-7 minutes, then place in ice water to stop cooking and peel.
  • Vegetables like shredded carrots add a refreshing crunch, but you can customize with other veggies such as spinach or bok choy.
  • For gluten-free option, use gluten-free soy sauce and noodles.
