Description
A delicious bowl of Creamy Garlic Chicken Ramen that combines rich flavors of garlic and chicken with comforting ramen noodles.
Ingredients
- 200 grams ramen noodles
- 2 pieces chicken breast (about 300 grams total)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) soy sauce
- 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) sesame oil
- 2 eggs (for soft-boiling)
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- 4 cups (960 ml) water (for boiling noodles and broth)
Instructions
1. Prepare the soft-boiled eggs by boiling them for 6-7 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath, peel, and set aside.
2. Cook the chicken in a skillet with sesame oil, seasoning with salt and pepper, for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked.
3. Sauté the minced garlic in the same skillet until fragrant and golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
4. In a separate pot, boil 4 cups of water and cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions, usually about 3-4 minutes.
5. Make the creamy garlic sauce by adding heavy cream and soy sauce to the skillet with garlic, simmering for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
6. Assemble the ramen bowl by dividing the cooked noodles into two bowls, pouring the creamy sauce over, and topping with sliced chicken, sautéed garlic, and halved soft-boiled eggs.
7. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator, keeping noodles separate from broth.
When reheating, add a splash of water or broth to loosen the noodles.
For a vegan version, substitute chicken with chickpeas or tempeh and use coconut cream instead of heavy cream.
