Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 packs Instant ramen noodles (no seasoning packets)
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 3 stalks Green onion, sliced
- 0.5 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 large Eggs, whisked
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with olive oil and set aside.
Cook the instant ramen noodles according to package instructions, omitting the seasoning packets. Drain and toss the noodles in a large bowl with the whisked eggs, salt, and black pepper. This will help bind the noodles as a base.
Transfer the noodle mixture to the bottom of the prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly to form a crust-like layer.
In a separate bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the BBQ sauce until evenly coated. Spread the BBQ chicken over the noodle layer.
Scatter the red onion slices over the BBQ chicken layer for a slight crunch and punch of flavor.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses evenly across the dish, ensuring full coverage.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbling, and golden brown at the edges.
Carefully remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Top with sliced green onions and freshly chopped cilantro if desired.
Slice into portions and serve warm. Enjoy the fusion of ramen, BBQ chicken, and pizza flavors in every bite!
