Ingredients

Scale

1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons neutral oil
3 packages instant ramen noodles (3 ounces each), seasoning packets discarded
1 tablespoon sesame oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons hot honey
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sriracha, optional
2 cups shredded cabbage
2 green onions, sliced
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, optional

Instructions

1. Season chicken with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
2. Toss chicken with cornstarch until lightly coated.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
4. Cook chicken in batches for 6 to 8 minutes until crisp and cooked through to 165°F.
5. Boil ramen noodles for 2 minutes until slightly underdone. Drain.
6. Add remaining neutral oil and sesame oil to the skillet.
7. Cook garlic and ginger for 20 to 30 seconds.
8. Stir in soy sauce, chicken broth, hot honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and sriracha if using.
9. Bubble the sauce for 1 minute.
10. Add cabbage and cook 1 to 2 minutes.
11. Add ramen and toss to coat.
12. Return chicken to the pan, or serve it over the noodles for maximum crispness.
13. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes

Undercook the ramen slightly so it does not turn mushy in the pan.
Cook the chicken in batches for better browning and crisp texture.
If you want more sauce, add an extra 2 to 3 tablespoons of broth.
Regular honey plus hot sauce works if you do not have hot honey.
This recipe is best served fresh for the best noodle texture.
