How To Make lazy day fancy chicken ramen

• Step 1
  Bring a small pot of water to a boil.
• Step 2
  Add egg and cook 9 minutes for soft-boiled, 11–12 minutes for fully hard-boiled. Bring a small pot of water to a boil.
• 
  Step 3
  Shock in ice water, peel, and halve. Set aside.
• Step 4
  Heat 1–2 Tbsp olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
• Step 5
  Add diced onion and cook 1 minute until fragrant.
• Step 6
  Add chicken pieces and stir-fry 3–4 minutes until nearly cooked through.
• Step 7
  Toss in the drained mushrooms and water chestnuts. Stir-fry 2 minutes until mushrooms are golden.
• 
  Step 8
  Add carrot ribbons last (they only need 30–60 seconds to soften slightly while staying crisp-tender).
• 
  Step 9
  Drizzle 1 1/2 Tbsp soy sauce over the entire pan (start with 1 Tbsp and adjust). Stir everything together for 30 seconds so the soy lightly glazes the chicken and veggies.
• Step 10
  Turn off heat and set aside.
• Step 11
  Boil 2 cups of water (or the amount suggested on your ramen package). Add the noodles and cook 2–3 minutes until just tender. In the last 30 seconds, stir in the entire Manchurian seasoning packet (this gives maximum flavor).
• 
  Step 12
  Place the hot noodles and a good amount of the broth into a deep bowl.
• Step 13
  Top with the soy-glazed chicken, mushrooms, water chestnuts, and carrot ribbons.
• Step 14
  Nestle the halved egg on top.
• Step 15
  Finish with green onions, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of chili oil if you like heat. Also, feel free to replace the vegetables with ones you like better, just keep it at about 1 1/3 to 1 1/2 cups of vegetables. Some suggestions are bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, pea pods, broccoli, green or red peppers, Chinese cabbage, and baby corn.
