Instructions

Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, combine chicken pieces with soy sauce, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly and let it marinate for about 10 minutes to enhance flavor.
Cook Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until the pieces are browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Prepare Broth: Pour the chicken broth into the skillet with the cooked chicken. Bring it to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to simmer.
Add Cream and Chili Sauce: Stir in the heavy cream and chili sauce into the broth. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the broth is creamy and flavorful.
Cook Noodles: Add the instant ramen noodles to the simmering broth. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until noodles are tender, stirring occasionally to separate the noodles.
Serve and Garnish: Ladle the ramen with chicken and creamy broth into bowls. Garnish with thinly sliced green onions and sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added texture and flavor.

Notes

For a spicier kick, increase the chili sauce or add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
You can substitute chicken breasts with thighs for a juicier texture.
Use low-sodium soy sauce to reduce salt content if preferred.
Instead of heavy cream, coconut milk can be used for a dairy-free alternative.
Feel free to add vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, or bean sprouts for extra nutrition and texture.
