- In the same pan, sauté minced garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute).
- Add chicken broth and soy sauce; scrape any browned bits from the pan.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer and add ramen noodles; cook according to package instructions (usually 4-5 minutes) until tender.
- Reduce heat to low and stir in heavy cream and red pepper flakes for added spice.
- Slice rested chicken into strips and serve over creamy noodles. Garnish with green onions and cilantro if desired.
Notes
Serve hot in deep bowls to keep the sauce warm. Offer extra red pepper flakes on the side for added heat. For storage, cool to room temperature, store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on low.
