Ingredients

This recipe keeps things simple and delicious! Here’s everything you’ll need to make your Fiery Chicken Ramen with Creamy Garlic Sauce:

2 packs instant ramen noodles (discard seasoning packets)
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chicken broth
½ cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sriracha (plus more for drizzling)
1 teaspoon chili flakes (optional for extra heat)
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup baby spinach (optional)
2 green onions, sliced
Sesame seeds, for garnish
Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

This Fiery Chicken Ramen with Creamy Garlic Sauce comes together super fast — here’s how:

Cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions (without the seasoning packet). Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken slices and cook until golden and cooked through, about 5–7 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, melt the butter and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute).
Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, sriracha, and heavy cream. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer.
Add the cooked ramen noodles to the sauce, tossing to coat evenly.
Return the chicken to the skillet, tossing everything together. If using, toss in the baby spinach and cook until just wilted.
Serve hot, topped with green onions, sesame seeds, and an extra drizzle of sriracha if you’re feeling bold!

Servings and Timing

This spicy, creamy ramen goodness is perfect for two hearty servings — or three lighter ones if you’re sharing.
From start to finish, you’ll have this dish on the table in about 25–30 minutes.
It’s quick enough for a busy weeknight, but special enough for a cozy weekend dinner at home!

Tips and Variations

Protein Swap: Feel free to use shrimp, tofu, or even leftover rotisserie chicken instead of fresh chicken breast.
Veggie Boost: Add mushrooms, bok choy, bell peppers, or shredded carrots for extra color and crunch.
Heat Level: Adjust the spiciness by adding more (or less) sriracha and chili flakes to suit your taste.
Creaminess Tip: For an even richer sauce, stir in a little extra butter or a splash of coconut milk.
Noodle Swap: Don’t have ramen? Udon or soba noodles would also work beautifully.

Storage

Got leftovers? No problem!
Store your Fiery Chicken Ramen with Creamy Garlic Sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
When reheating, add a splash of chicken broth or water to loosen up the sauce, as it may thicken in the fridge.
For best flavor and texture, enjoy sooner rather than later — ramen noodles tend to soak up all that delicious sauce over time!

FAQs

Can I make this ramen less spicy?

Yes! Simply cut back on the sriracha and chili flakes, or skip them altogether for a milder, creamy garlic flavor.

Can I use pre-cooked chicken?

Absolutely! Just slice it thin and toss it in during the last few minutes to warm through.

What type of ramen noodles should I use?

Instant ramen works perfectly, but you can use fresh or frozen ramen if you want a more gourmet touch.

Can I make this dish dairy-free?

Sure! Swap the heavy cream for full-fat coconut milk and use a plant-based butter substitute.

How do I make it even creamier?

Stir in an extra tablespoon of butter or a splash more cream right before serving.

Can I meal prep this ramen?

It’s best enjoyed fresh, but you can prep the sauce and chicken ahead of time and cook the noodles right before serving.

What toppings go well with this ramen?

Try soft-boiled eggs, extra green onions, cilantro, a squeeze of lime, or even crispy fried onions for extra crunch!
