Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
  • Oil for cooking (e.g., vegetable or canola oil, 1-2 tbsp)

Noodles and Broth

  • 2 servings fresh ramen noodles
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)

Sauce and Garnish

  • 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prep Ingredients: Gather all ingredients on your countertop for an organized cooking process to ensure smooth execution.
  2. Cook Chicken: Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Season chicken breasts as desired and cook them for about 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked through. Remove chicken from the pan and let it rest for slicing later.
  3. Sauté Garlic and Build Broth: In the same pan, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in chicken broth and low-sodium soy sauce, scraping the pan to deglaze and incorporate browned bits for extra flavor.
  4. Cook Ramen Noodles: Bring the broth mixture to a gentle simmer. Add fresh ramen noodles and cook according to package instructions, usually 4-5 minutes, until tender.
  5. Add Cream and Spice: Reduce heat to low, then stir in the heavy cream and red pepper flakes. Mix well to create a spicy, creamy broth that coats the noodles nicely.
  6. Assemble and Serve: Slice the rested chicken breasts into strips. Serve the creamy ramen topped with sliced chicken. Garnish with sliced green onions and optional cilantro for a fresh finish.

Notes

  • Adjust red pepper flakes to control the heat level according to your preference.
  • Use low-sodium broth and soy sauce to manage salt content.
  • Fresh ramen noodles are preferred for texture, but dried can be substituted if necessary.
  • Resting chicken after cooking ensures juicy, tender slices.
  • For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or coconut milk, noting that this will change the flavor profile.
