Fiery Chicken Ramen with Creamy Garlic Sauce Delight
Ingredients
- 2 thighs boneless, skinless chicken
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 200 grams ramen noodles
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (shiitake or button)
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 2 green onions chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 0 Salt and pepper to taste
- 0 Toasted sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the chicken thighs with soy sauce, sriracha, and sesame oil. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes for maximum flavor.
- In a pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer and add the ramen noodles. Cook according to package instructions (usually around 4-5 minutes) until al dente, then remove from heat.
- In a large pan, heat a little sesame oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, stirring until fragrant (about 1 minute).
- Add the marinated chicken to the pan and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until fully cooked and golden brown. Remove from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- In the same pan, pour in the heavy cream and stir, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer gently for a few minutes to thicken. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- To the pot of cooked ramen, add the mushrooms and baby spinach. Stir gently until the spinach wilts and mushrooms are tender.
- Place a portion of ramen with broth in a bowl, top with sliced chicken, and drizzle the creamy garlic sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
