2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon ginger powder

Salt and pepper to taste

For the Ramen Base:

4 cups chicken broth

2 packets of instant ramen noodles (discard the seasoning packets)

1 tablespoon miso paste

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon mirin (sweet rice wine)

1 teaspoon chili oil (optional, for extra heat)

For the Creamy Garlic Sauce:

1/2 cup heavy cream

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 tablespoon parmesan cheese, grated

Salt and pepper to taste

Garnishes:

Chopped green onions

Soft-boiled eggs (optional)

Nori sheets, cut into strips

Sesame seeds

Instructions
 

Prepare the Fiery Chicken: In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, sriracha, sesame oil, garlic powder, ginger powder, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken thighs and coat well. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.

    Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little oil, then cook the marinated chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let rest before slicing into strips.

      Prepare the Ramen Base: In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer. Stir in the miso paste, soy sauce, and mirin until well combined.

        Cook the Ramen Noodles: Add the ramen noodles to the simmering broth and cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-4 minutes. If using chili oil, add it during the last minute of cooking.

          Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute). Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper. Cook until slightly thickened.

            Assemble the Ramen Bowls: In bowls, serve a portion of the ramen soup with noodles. Top with the sliced fiery chicken, a drizzle of creamy garlic sauce, and desired garnishes like green onions, soft-boiled eggs, nori strips, and sesame seeds.

              Enjoy: Serve hot and enjoy your Spicy Samurai Ramen, a perfect blend of heat, creaminess, and umami flavors!
