Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine chili powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful rub. Coat chicken evenly and marinate for 15 minutes.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side until charred and cooked through. Remove and let rest before slicing.
  3. In a medium saucepan, melt butter and sauté minced garlic until fragrant. Gradually whisk in heavy cream and let simmer for 3-5 minutes until thickened.
  4. Boil a pot of water and cook ramen noodles according to package instructions, about 3-5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
  5. In the same pan used for the chicken, heat sesame oil and sauté minced garlic. Add chicken broth and soy sauce, then stir in heavy cream and simmer for 5 minutes.
  6. Divide cooked ramen noodles into bowls and ladle hot spicy broth over them. Top with sliced chicken and drizzle with creamy garlic sauce.
  7. Garnish with chopped green onions and optional chili oil. Serve immediately while hot.
