Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
2 chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon chili sauce (adjust to taste)
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon paprika
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
2 packs instant ramen noodles
Salt and pepper, to taste
4 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
Instructions
In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, chili sauce, and honey. Add the chicken pieces and toss to coat evenly. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes.
Stir in the garlic and paprika, cooking for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add ramen noodles and cook according to package directions, about 3–4 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer for 5 minutes to thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Ladle into bowls and top with sliced green onions. Serve hot.
Notes
You can easily control the spice level by adjusting the amount of chili sauce.
For a vegetarian option, replace the chicken with tofu and use vegetable broth.
Make it gluten-free by using gluten-free ramen and soy sauce alternatives.
The broth will thicken slightly as it sits—add a splash of broth or water if reheating.
