If you’ve ever wished for a spicy bowl of ramen that’s both comforting and simple to make, this recipe is for you. Let’s face it—most instant noodles don’t always give us the flavor and freshness we crave. That’s why I made this homemade spicy ramen noodles recipe; it’s quick to put together, full of fresh ingredients, and the spice level is just right.
Gather all the ingredients and chop your vegetables. Set them aside for easy access while cooking. This makes cooking fast and convenient.
Cook the noodles separately, then drain and set them aside. This way, they won’t get soggy while you finish the broth.
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips. In a pan, brown the chicken and set them aside. You can use pre-cooked chicken, but browning the raw chicken directly in the pan adds depth to the flavor.
Add in your veggies like bok choy and enoki mushrooms. Let them simmer until they’re tender, then add the noodles. Assemble everything in a bowl and pour boiling broth over it. Top it with avocado slices and cooked egg.
