A cozy bowl of creamy garlic chicken ramen that’s quick, comforting, and family-friendly. Perfect for weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts, sliced (boneless, skinless)
  • 4 cups chicken broth (low-sodium recommended)
  • 2 cups ramen noodles (fresh or packaged)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (bell peppers, carrots, peas, or frozen mix)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Green onions, thinly sliced, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat 1–2 tablespoons of neutral oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken in a single layer. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 4–6 minutes, stirring once or twice.
  2. Push the chicken to the side and add the minced garlic. Cook 1–2 minutes until fragrant, stirring so the garlic does not burn.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a rolling boil. Scrape the bottom to pick up any browned bits for extra flavor.
  4. Add the ramen noodles and mixed vegetables. Cook according to the noodle package instructions, usually 2–4 minutes for packaged ramen or a little longer for fresh noodles.
  5. Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream and soy sauce. Warm gently until steaming but not boiling. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Ladle into bowls and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve immediately.

Notes

Use thinly sliced chicken to speed cooking. If a lighter broth is desired, reduce heavy cream to 1/2 cup and add a splash of milk instead. For gluten-free, swap ramen for rice noodles and soy sauce for tamari.
