Ingredients

2 chicken breasts
50g all purpose flour season with salt and pepper
2 tablespoon olive oil
3 garlic cloves minced
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon chilli flakes
600ml chicken stock
½ lemon juiced
300 ml single or light cream
150g fresh ramen noodles

Lemon Chicken Ramen toppings

5g parsley finely chopped
Lemon wedges
Mangetouts
Sesame seeds

Instructions

First up, coat your chicken breasts in a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper. Place a saucepan on medium heat and drizzle in some olive oil. Add in the chicken breasts and cook on each side for 3 minutes until golden. Remove and set aside.
Using the same saucepan, add in finely chopped garlic, paprika, oregano, and chilli flakes. Give everything a good stir, then pour in your chicken stock and squeeze in your lemon juice. Pour in the cream and give everything a stir.
Place your chicken breasts back into the saucepan and add on the lid. Cook for 5-10 minutes, then remove the chicken breasts once again and set them aside.
Drop the noodles into the broth and cook for 2-3 minutes or based on packet instructions.
Meanwhile, slice up your chicken breast ready to top your lemon chicken ramen.
Once your noodles are ready, divide the noodles and broth between two bowls. Top with your sliced chicken breast, parsley, lemon wedges, mangetouts and sesame seeds. Enjoy!

Notes

Step-by-Step Photos: My blog post includes helpful step-by-step photos to help guide you through making this recipe.

To double quantity: This recipe can be doubled to make the dish for 4 people.

Storage: If you have any leftover lemon chicken ramen, store everything in an airtight container and into the fridge for up to 3 days.

Freezing: You can absolutely freeze this recipe. However, the chicken, broth, and noodles might experience a change in texture! Make sure to defrost/thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.

Reheating: I would personally recommend heating this dish up on the stove top in a large saucepan. Feel free to add some more chicken stock to loosen up the broth. If you want minimal washing up, then place it in the microwave until piping hot.
