Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp chili paste (such as sambal oelek)
  • 1 tbsp sriracha (optional, for extra heat)
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp tahini or sesame paste
  • 2 packs ramen noodles (discard seasoning packets)
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels
  • 2 boiled eggs, halved
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add chicken slices and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same pot, add garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant.
  4. Stir in soy sauce, chili paste, sriracha, and rice vinegar. Cook for 1 minute.
  5. Pour in chicken broth, coconut milk, and tahini. Whisk until smooth and bring to a simmer.

  7. Return chicken to the pot along with spinach and corn. Stir to combine and heat through.
  8. Ladle ramen into bowls, topping with boiled eggs, green onions, and sesame seeds.

Notes

  • Adjust spice level by adding more or less chili paste or sriracha.
  • Top with extra vegetables like mushrooms, bok choy, or carrots.
  • Use miso paste instead of tahini for a deeper umami flavor.
