Begin by marinating the chicken breasts. In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl, ensuring they are well coated with the marinade. Set aside for at least 10 minutes.
In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer over medium heat.
While the broth is heating, heat a pan over medium-high heat and cook the marinated chicken breasts until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for a few minutes.
Add the ramen noodles to the simmering broth and cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-4 minutes.
In the last minute of the noodles cooking, gently crack and add the eggs to the simmering broth, allowing them to poach for about 2-3 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips.
Add the sliced chicken, spinach, and remaining tablespoon of soy sauce into the broth. Stir gently to combine and let the spinach wilt.
Season the soup with sesame oil, salt, and black pepper according to taste.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped green onions. Serve hot and enjoy your high-protein classic ramen noodle soup!
