Ingredients
  

2 boneless chicken thighs, sliced

4 cups chicken broth

2 packs of instant ramen noodles (discard the seasoning packets)

1 tablespoon sesame oil

2 tablespoons chili paste (adjust to taste)

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon ginger, minced

1 cup heavy cream

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon green onions, chopped (for garnish)

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

2 soft-boiled eggs (for serving, optional)

1 cup baby spinach (optional)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix sliced chicken with soy sauce, chili paste, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

    Prepare the Ramen Broth: In a large pot, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

      Develop the Flavor: Add the chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a simmer, then stir in the rice vinegar and adjust seasoning if needed.

        Cook the Ramen Noodles: Add the instant ramen noodles to the broth. Cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes, until noodles are tender.

          Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream with minced garlic and a little salt. Heat over low heat until warmed, stirring occasionally. Once warm, blend it briefly for a creamier texture (optional).

            Combine and Serve: Once the noodles are cooked, add baby spinach if using and stir until wilted. Place the ramen into bowls, then ladle the hot broth and chicken over the noodles. Drizzle the creamy garlic sauce on top.

              Garnish: Top each bowl with chopped green onions, sesame seeds, and a soft-boiled egg if desired.

                Enjoy Your Meal! Serve hot, and enjoy the fiery flavors and creamy goodness!
