Savory Peanut Chicken Ramen Delight

Ingredients

- 2 tablespoons neutral oil (such as canola or vegetable)
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 2 packs instant ramen noodles (no seasoning packets)
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 3 green onions, finely chopped

Instructions

1. Preparation of Ingredients
Prepare all ingredients and separate them into two groups for easy access. Group 1: neutral oil, ground chicken. Group 2: ramen noodles, creamy peanut butter, lime juice, and green onions.

2. Cook the Ground Chicken
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of neutral oil. Once the oil shimmers, add 1 pound of ground chicken. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, breaking up any large pieces with a spatula, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.

3. Prepare the Ramen Noodles
Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook 2 packs of instant ramen noodles according to package instructions, omitting any seasoning packet. Drain and set aside.

4. Create the Peanut Sauce
In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter with 3 tablespoons lime juice. Mix until smooth. If the sauce appears too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until you reach a creamy consistency.

5. Combine and Simmer
Add the cooked ramen noodles to the skillet with the ground chicken. Pour the peanut sauce over the noodles and chicken, tossing to coat the ingredients evenly. Reduce the heat to low, and let the mixture simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

6. Finish with Green Onions
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle 3 finely chopped green onions over the top. Give a final stir to distribute the green onions evenly.
