Instructions
Follow these easy steps to create your Fiery Chicken Ramen with Creamy Garlic Sauce:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Season sliced chicken breasts with garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
2. Heat Oil: In a large pot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat.
3. Cook Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until cooked through and slightly golden. Remove chicken and set aside.
4. Make Broth: In the same pot, pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a gentle simmer. Stir in soy sauce and sesame oil.
5. Cook Noodles: Add ramen noodles to the broth. Cook according to package instructions (usually 3-4 minutes).
6. Add Vegetables: Just before the noodles are done, stir in baby spinach and bean sprouts. Cook for an additional minute until the spinach is wilted.
7. Prepare Creamy Sauce: In a separate bowl, mix heavy cream with minced garlic. Slowly pour this mixture into the pot, stirring well to combine.
8. Return Chicken: Add the cooked chicken back to the pot and heat through for 1-2 minutes.
9. Taste and Adjust: Taste the broth and adjust seasoning if necessary with additional salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes.
10. Serve: Ladle the ramen into bowls, ensuring each has a good amount of noodles, chicken, and vegetables.
