Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions
1. Season chicken with chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper; let marinate for 15 minutes.
2. Sear the chicken in a skillet until golden brown, then set aside.
3. Make the creamy garlic sauce by sautéing minced garlic in butter and stirring in heavy cream.
4. Cook ramen noodles according to package instructions and drain.
5. For the broth, sauté garlic in sesame oil, then add chicken broth and heavy cream; simmer for 5 minutes.
6. Assemble by placing noodles in bowls, pouring over broth, topping with sliced chicken and creamy sauce.
7. Garnish with green onions and optional chili oil before serving.
Notes
For a vegetarian version, substitute chicken with tofu and use vegetable broth. Adjust the spice level by reducing or increasing chili powder and chili oil. Fresh ramen noodles give a chewier texture, but dried noodles work well too.
