Instructions

Step 1: Bring a medium pot of water to boil. Add 4 oz ramen noodles and cook for 3-4 minutes until just tender. Drain and set aside.
Step 2: While noodles cook, marinate 1 large (8 oz) chicken breast in 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger, and 2 minced garlic cloves for 10 minutes.
Step 3: Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill marinated chicken breast for 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through and grill marks appear. Let rest 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
Step 4: In a separate pot, bring 4 cups chicken broth to a simmer. Season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
Step 5: To assemble, divide ramen noodles between bowls. Pour hot broth over noodles, arrange grilled chicken slices on top, add 1 peeled soft-boiled egg halved, sprinkle with 2 sliced green onions and 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds before serving.
