Quick & Creamy Rotisserie Chicken Ramen
Get ready for my Quick & Creamy Rotisserie Chicken Ramen. This isn’t just another noodle soup; it’s a comforting, flavorful bowl that feels like a hug in a mug (or, you know, a bowl). It’s a vibrant, flavorful bowl that’s packed with fresh ingredients and comes together way faster than you’d think. Prepare for your taste buds to be very, very happy.
Why This Ramen Is the Real MVP
Forget bland broth. We’re building a flavor powerhouse starting with coconut oil, then sautéing a colorful mix of yellow onion, red bell peppers, and carrots. This isn’t just about pretty colors; these veggies add amazing natural sweetness and texture. Then, we hit it with garlic, curry powder, and a hint of cayenne pepper for that perfect warmth and kick. (Don’t worry, a little kosher salt keeps everything balanced.)
The real magic happens with not one, but two cans of rich, creamy coconut milk blended with savory Swanson Chicken Broth. This creates the most luscious, velvety base you can imagine. Into that dreamy liquid goes tender, pre-cooked, shredded rotisserie chicken – your ultimate shortcut to a hearty meal. And, of course, the essential ramen noodles (toss those seasoning packets for another use, we’re making our own flavor here!). Serve it up with a squeeze of fresh lime for that perfect bright finish.
Seriously, this dish is gourmet vibes with minimal fuss. It looks impressive, tastes incredible, and takes less than 30 minutes from start to slurp!
Food for Thought! 🤓 (A Couple of Fun Facts)
- Coconut Milk Power: Beyond its delicious creaminess, coconut milk is actually a fantastic plant-based dairy alternative and is packed with healthy fats. It’s used in cuisines worldwide, from Southeast Asia to the Caribbean!
- The Slurp Factor: Did you know that in Japan, loudly slurping your ramen is actually considered a compliment to the chef? It’s believed to enhance the flavor and cool down the noodles. So go ahead, slurp away with pride!

Quick & Creamy Rotisserie Chicken Ramen

Ingredients
- 2-3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 1 Tbsp. coconut oil
- 1/2 yellow onion diced
- 1 red bell peppers diced
- 1 large carrot peeled and cut into thin pieces
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 Tbsp. curry powder
- 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper if sensitive to spice, do 1/4 tsp – i do 1/4
- Kosher salt
- 1 13.5-oz. can unsweetened coconut milk (shaken well)
- 3 cups Chicken Broth
- 3 package ramen noodles reserve seasoning for another use
- Lime wedges for serving
Instructions
- First, grab a large pot and warm up the coconut oil over medium heat. Toss in your chopped onion, bell pepper, and carrots. Let them cook down until they’re tender, which should take about 6 to 8 minutes. Next, stir in the minced garlic for just a minute until you can smell its inviting aroma. Then, sprinkle in the curry powder and cayenne pepper, adding a pinch of salt to taste. Give everything a good stir to combine all those fragrant spices.
- Build the Broth: Now, pour in the creamy coconut milk and savory chicken broth, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer. Carefully add your ramen noodles, letting them soften and separate into the delicious broth. Finally, stir in the shredded chicken. Continue to cook just until the noodles are perfectly al dente – that’s when they’re tender but still have a slight bite.
- Serve and Enjoy! Dish out your beautiful ramen into bowls. For an extra touch of freshness and flavor, serve with lime wedges on the side. Squeeze that lime over your bowl for a bright, zesty finish!
