Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Season the fresh shrimp with paprika, Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the shrimp for about 2 minutes on each side. Set aside.

Cooking

  • In the same skillet, sauté the sliced jalapeño cheddar sausages until browned.
  • In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic, diced onion, and red bell pepper, sautéing until fragrant.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and soy sauce, bringing it to a gentle simmer.
  • Stir in the milk, cream cheese, and shredded cheddar cheese until melted.
  • Add the ramen noodles to the pot and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Once cooked, return the shrimp and sausages to the pot and mix everything together.

Serving

  • Serve the ramen in bowls, topped with soft-boiled eggs, fresh jalapeño slices, and green onions. Drizzle with chili oil if desired.

Notes

For a firmer noodle, cook the ramen separately. Add more vegetables for nutritional benefits. Adjust spice levels according to preference.
