Ingredients

Chicken and Coating

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 50g all purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Sauce and Broth

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 8 sun-dried tomatoes, sliced
  • 1/2 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tbsp oregano
  • 1/2 tbsp chilli flakes
  • 600ml chicken stock (divided)
  • 300ml single cream
  • 2 tbsp grated parmesan (plus extra for garnish)
  • 1/2 tsp ground pepper
  • 1/2 tsp flaky salt
  • 1/2 tsp sugar

Noodles and Toppings

  • 200g ramen noodles
  • Coriander (to taste)
  • Beansprouts (to taste)
  • Edamame beans (to taste)
  • Spring onion (to taste)
  • Chilli oil (to drizzle)

Instructions

  1. Coat and Fry the Chicken: Pour the all purpose flour onto a plate. Coat the chicken breasts evenly in the flour. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Fry the chicken breasts for 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove the chicken breasts from the pan and set aside while you prepare the sauce.
  2. Prepare the Sauce Base: In the same saucepan, add the minced garlic, sliced sun-dried tomatoes, smoked paprika, chilli flakes, and oregano. Sauté for a couple of minutes until fragrant. Then add 300ml of chicken stock and the single cream. Mix well to combine. Grate in the parmesan cheese and stir until melted and incorporated.
  3. Simmer the Chicken in Sauce: Return the chicken breasts to the saucepan, cover with a lid, and cook on medium-low heat for 5 minutes to allow the chicken to finish cooking and absorb the flavors. Remove the chicken breasts again and set aside to rest before slicing.
  4. Season and Cook Noodles: Season the broth with flaky salt, ground pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon sugar. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Pour in the remaining 300ml of chicken stock. Add the ramen noodles to the simmering broth and cook according to the package instructions, stirring frequently to ensure noodles cook evenly and do not stick.
  5. Assemble and Serve: Once the noodles are cooked, divide the broth and noodles evenly into two bowls. Slice the rested chicken breasts and place on top of the noodles. Garnish with fresh coriander, beansprouts, spring onions, edamame beans, and a drizzle of chilli oil. Sprinkle extra grated parmesan if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Ensure the chicken is coated well with flour to achieve a golden crust when frying.
  • Adjust the amount of chilli flakes and chilli oil based on your preferred spice level.
  • For a creamier broth, carefully use single cream or substitute with heavy cream.
  • Feel free to add additional vegetables such as mushrooms or baby spinach for extra nutrition.
  • Use fresh ramen noodles for best texture or substitute with dried if unavailable.
  • Let the chicken rest after cooking to keep it juicy before slicing.
