Ingredients

Broth and Seasonings

  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Protein

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs

Noodles and Vegetables

  • 4 ounces ramen noodles
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Creamy Garlic Sauce

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the broth: In a large pot, combine 2 cups chicken broth, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sriracha, and 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat to develop the spicy and savory broth base.
  2. Season and cook the chicken: Season 1 pound of boneless skinless chicken thighs with 2 teaspoons garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, salt, and pepper. Heat a little oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken thighs for about 5-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked through. Remove the chicken and let it rest before slicing thinly.
  3. Cook the ramen noodles: Add 4 ounces of ramen noodles to the simmering broth and cook according to package instructions, usually about 4-5 minutes, until tender.
  4. Make the creamy garlic sauce: While the noodles are cooking, combine 1/2 cup heavy cream, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a small saucepan. Heat gently over low heat, stirring frequently until warmed through and infused with garlic flavor.
  5. Wilt the spinach: Once the noodles are cooked, stir in 1 cup baby spinach directly into the broth until just wilted, adding fresh brightness and nutrients to the ramen.
  6. Assemble and serve: Divide the ramen and broth into individual bowls. Top each bowl with sliced chicken thighs, drizzle with the creamy garlic sauce, and garnish with sliced green onions and 1 tablespoon sesame seeds for added texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of sriracha to control the spice level according to your preference.
  • Use chicken thighs for tenderness and flavor; chicken breasts can be used but may be less juicy.
  • For a richer sauce, cream can be substituted with half-and-half or coconut milk for a dairy-free version.
  • Make sure to rest the chicken before slicing to retain juiciness.
  • Sesame oil adds a distinctive flavor—do not substitute with vegetable oil for authenticity.
