Ingredients
  

For the Chicken:
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
For the Broth:
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
For the Creamy Garlic Sauce:
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
For the Ramen:
  • 2 packs of ramen noodles dried or fresh
  • 1 green onion chopped (for garnish)
  • 1 tsp chili oil optional, for added spice

Method
 

Marinate the Chicken:
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine chili powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub the spice blend evenly over the chicken, ensuring full coverage. Let the chicken marinate for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Cook the Chicken:
  1. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and sear for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until it turns golden brown and is fully cooked. Remove from heat and allow it to rest before slicing into strips.
Prepare the Creamy Garlic Sauce:
  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté until it becomes aromatic. Stir in the heavy cream and cook for a few minutes until the sauce slightly thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
Cook the Ramen Noodles:
  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook the ramen noodles according to the instructions on the package. Once done, drain the noodles and set them aside.
Make the Spicy Broth:
  1. In a separate pot, heat sesame oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, and heavy cream. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for 5 to 7 minutes.
Assemble the Ramen Bowl:
  1. Place the cooked noodles into serving bowls. Ladle the hot spicy broth over the noodles, then arrange the sliced chicken on top. Finish by spooning the creamy garlic sauce over the chicken.
Garnish & Serve:
  1. Top each bowl with chopped green onions and an optional drizzle of chili oil for added heat. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy the flavorful fusion!

Notes

To enhance the texture, consider adding toppings such as sesame seeds, soft-boiled eggs, or a drizzle of chili oil.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. When reheating, warm gently on the stovetop and add a bit of broth or cream to restore the sauce’s consistency if necessary.
You can customize the heat level to suit your taste by adjusting the amount of cayenne pepper or chili powder used.
