Spicy, savory Chicken Ramen Stir Fry made in under 30 minutes—easy and delicious!

Ingredients

Stir Fry:

  • 9 ounces ramen noodles
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 chicken breasts thinly sliced
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 cups napa cabbage shredded
  • ½ cup green onion sliced
  • Sesame seeds optional, for garnish

Stir Fry Sauce:

  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Ramen

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup of cooking water before draining. Set noodles aside.

Step 2: Make the Sauce

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sriracha, honey, and sesame oil until smooth. Set aside.

Tip: Adjust sriracha for heat preference—use 1 tablespoon for mild, or more for extra spice.

    Step 3: Sauté the Chicken

    • Heat the butter in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced chicken, season with pepper, and sauté until golden and fully cooked—about 6–7 minutes. Flip and brown both sides evenly.

    Step 4: Add Veggies

    • Add the sliced red bell pepper and sauté for 2–3 minutes until it softens slightly. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 more minute, letting it release its aroma.
    • Add the shredded napa cabbage and cook for 2 more minutes until wilted and lightly browned.

    Step 5: Combine Noodles and Sauce

    • Add the cooked ramen noodles to the pan along with the prepared sauce. Pour in a little reserved cooking water to help loosen the mixture and ensure everything gets coated evenly.
    • Toss well to combine, and cook for another 2–3 minutes, letting the noodles absorb the sauce.

    Step 6: Finish and Garnish

    • Stir in the sliced green onion, then turn off the heat. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired, and serve immediately.
