Begin by prepping the ingredients: mince the garlic, slice the shiitake mushrooms, chop the bok choy, and prepare the zoodles if not using pre-made.
In a large pot or dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breast to the pot and sear on each side until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside.
In the same pot, add the minced garlic and ground ginger. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and soy sauce. Add in the red chili flakes and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Return the seared chicken breast to the pot. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the chicken breast from the pot once more, shred it with two forks, and return the shredded chicken to the pot.
Add the chopped bok choy and sliced shiitake mushrooms to the pot. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a small pot of water to a boil. Gently lower the eggs into the boiling water and cook for 6-7 minutes for a soft boil. Remove and place in an ice bath.
Add the zucchini noodles to the soup pot and cook for 2-3 minutes, until just tender.
Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.
Peel the soft-boiled eggs and slice them in half.
Ladle the soup into bowls, topping each with sliced green onions and a halved soft-boiled egg.
Serve immediately, enjoying this warm, comforting, keto-friendly ramen soup.
