Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Ramen:

    • 2 packs of instant ramen noodles
    • 2 cups chicken breast, thinly sliced
    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    • 2 cups chicken broth
    • 1 cup water
    • 1 cup cabbage, shredded
    • 1 cup carrots, julienned
    • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
    • 1 cup spinach
    • 2 green onions, chopped
    • 2 boiled eggs, halved
  • For the Sauce:

    • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
    • 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean hot pepper paste)
    • 1 tablespoon sriracha
    • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
    • 1 tablespoon honey
    • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
    • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • For Garnish:

    • Sesame seeds
    • Fresh cilantro

Instructions

  • Prepare the Sauce:
    In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, gochujang, sriracha, hoisin sauce, honey, ginger, and garlic until well combined. Set aside.

  • Cook the Chicken:
    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced chicken breast and cook until no longer pink. Add half of the prepared sauce to the chicken, stirring until fully coated and caramelized.

  • Cook the Vegetables:
    Add cabbage, carrots, and mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are slightly tender.

  • Prepare the Broth:
    Pour chicken broth and water into the skillet. Bring to a simmer, then add ramen noodles. Cook according to package instructions, usually 3-4 minutes.

  • Combine and Serve:
    Stir in spinach and the remaining sauce. Once spinach is wilted, remove from heat. Serve ramen in bowls, topped with boiled egg halves, green onions, sesame seeds, and fresh cilantro.

Notes

  • Adjust the spice level by reducing or increasing gochujang and sriracha.
  • Substitute chicken with tofu for a vegetarian option.
  • Add a squeeze of lime juice for a fresh, tangy twist.
