Instructions
Making Creamy Garlic Chicken Ramen is a straightforward process. Just follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
2. Cook Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken and let it rest.
3. Sauté Garlic: In the same pot, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
4. Add Broth: Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer.
5. Mix Cream: Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream and soy sauce, allowing it to combine well.
6. Thicken Sauce: If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry, then stir it into the broth. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
7. Cook Noodles: In a separate pot, cook ramen noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
8. Add Greens: Stir in spinach or bok choy into the broth and let it wilt for about 1-2 minutes.
9. Slice Chicken: While the greens are cooking, slice the rested chicken into thin pieces.
10. Assemble Ramen: In bowls, divide the cooked ramen noodles. Ladle the creamy broth and greens over the noodles, then top with sliced chicken.
11. Garnish: Finish with green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
With these simple steps, you can create an incredible bowl of Creamy Garlic Chicken Ramen that is sure to impress.
