Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups ramen noodles
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 large eggs
- 3 green onions, sliced
- Vegetable oil, for frying

How to Make Crispy Chicken Ramen Stack
- Start by cooking the ramen noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt to create a marinade. Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- While the chicken is marinating, prepare the soft-boiled eggs. Bring a small pot of water to a boil, gently add the eggs, and cook for 6-7 minutes. Remove the eggs and place them in an ice bath to cool. Once cooled, peel and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour and cornstarch. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Then, dip them into the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken breasts and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- To assemble, place a serving of ramen noodles on a plate. Top with crispy chicken, then slice the soft-boiled eggs in half and place them on top. Drizzle with additional soy sauce or your favorite sauce, and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying the chicken to achieve maximum crispiness.
- For extra flavor, consider marinating the chicken for a couple of hours.
- Experiment with different sauces like teriyaki or spicy mayo for a unique twist.
Easy Variations
- Add sautéed vegetables like bok choy, bell peppers, or carrots to the ramen for added nutrition.
- Substitute chicken with tofu or shrimp for a different protein option.
- Spice it up by adding chili oil or sriracha to the sauce.
What to Serve With It
- Steamed dumplings for a delightful appetizer.
- A side salad with sesame dressing for freshness.
- Pickled vegetables to balance the richness of the dish.
Storage and Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm the noodles and chicken in a skillet over medium heat until heated through. Soft-boiled eggs are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored separately.
