Ingredients
  

For the ramen
  • 2 portions ramen noodles
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 tbsp chili crisp plus more for topping
  • 1 1/2 tbsp creamy peanut butter
  • 1 garlic clove finely grated
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger finely grated
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
For the chicken
  • 1 large chicken breast
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
For topping
  • 2 jammy eggs
  • scallions sliced
  • red chili thinly sliced
  • fresh cilantro
  • sesame seeds
  • chili crisp
  • lime wedges

Method
 

  1. Pat the chicken dry and season both sides with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for 5-6 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from the skillet and let rest before slicing.
  2. Reduce heat to medium. Add the grated garlic and ginger to the same skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add the peanut butter, soy sauce, chili crisp, honey, rice vinegar and sesame oil. Stir until combined, then gradually whisk in the chicken broth until smooth. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and let the broth gently simmer while you prepare the noodles and eggs.
  5. Bring a separate pot of water to a boil. Add the eggs and cook for 7 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath. Cook the ramen noodles according to package directions and drain.
  6. Divide the noodles between two bowls and ladle the hot peanut broth over the top.
  7. Top with sliced chicken, halved jammy eggs, scallions, cilantro, red chili and sesame seeds. Finish with extra chili crisp and a squeeze of fresh lime.
