Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Mince the garlic cloves and chop the green onions. Separate the white and green parts of the green onions.
In a small bowl, whisk together gochujang, soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil to make the sauce. Set aside.
Bring a pot of water to boil and cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set them aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until fully cooked. Remove the chicken and set aside.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and the white parts of the green onions. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Return the chicken to the skillet and pour in the prepared sauce. Stir to coat the chicken evenly in the sauce.
Push the chicken to one side of the skillet and crack the eggs into the empty space. Lightly scramble them until just set.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, tossing them in the sauce with the chicken and eggs until everything is well combined.
Garnish with the green parts of the green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving.
