Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Frying pan / Large Skillet

Ingredients
  

For the chicken:

  • 4 chicken thighs 400g
  • 2 tablespoon sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce

For the broth:

  • 1 teaspoon cooking oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger minced
  • 1 L chicken stock
  • 240 ml coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoon sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon miso paste

Toppings

  • 300 g ramen noodles
  • 4 spring onions
  • 100 g edamame
  • 2 eggs

Instructions
 

  • Begin by preparing your ingredients. For the perfect ramen eggs, boil them for 6 minutes and 30 seconds, then transfer them immediately to an ice bath to stop the cooking. This keeps the yolk beautifully jammy. At this point also chop spring onions and mince garlic and ginger.

  • In a bowl, mix Sriracha, honey, and light soy sauce, then coat the chicken thighs in the marinade. Let it sit while you prepare the broth—this allows the flavors to infuse deeply into the meat.

  • Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger, stirring for a minute until fragrant. Stir in Sriracha, light soy sauce and dark soy sauce, ensuring everything is well combined.

  • Pour in the chicken stock and bring it to a simmer for 5 minutes. Then, add the coconut milk and lower the heat and continuing to simmer while you cook the chicken, stirring occasionally, allowing the broth to develop its rich, creamy texture.

  • Heat a separate pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for 4-5 minutes per side, allowing it to caramelize and develop a deep, golden crust. Once cooked, slice it into strips. While the chicken finishes cooking, boil your ramen noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

  • Divide the noodles between serving bowls. I like to stir the miso paste into to my ramen broth at this point until dissolved before straining the broth over the noodles to remove garlic and ginger bits for a smooth finish. Top with sliced chicken, spring onions, edamame, and half a soft-boiled egg per bowl.

Notes

For extra juicy, flavorful chicken, let the thighs marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight if possible). Searing on medium-high heat allows the honey to caramelize beautifully, creating crispy edges while keeping the inside tender.
