Step 1: Preparing the Broth
In a large pot, combine the chicken broth, water, soy sauce, miso paste, sesame oil, ginger, and red pepper flakes.
Bring to a simmer over medium heat and let it cook for 15 minutes to develop deep flavors.
Step 2: Cooking the Chicken
Season the chicken thighs or breasts with soy sauce, olive oil, and black pepper.
Heat a pan over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side.
Reduce the heat, cover, and cook until fully cooked (about 10 minutes).
Remove from heat, let rest for a few minutes, then slice into thin strips.
Step 3: Making the Garlic Sauce
In a small pan, melt butter over low heat.
Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute).
Stir in soy sauce, honey, and chili flakes, then remove from heat.
Step 4: Assembling the Ramen Bowl
Cook your ramen noodles according to the package instructions.
Divide the noodles into bowls and pour the hot broth over them.
Top with sliced chicken and drizzle with garlic sauce.
Add your favorite toppings like soft-boiled eggs, green onions, and seaweed.
