Nissin Cup Noodles Ramen Bistro Sichuan Garlic Chicken

No Added MSG

The Nissin Cup Noodles Ramen Bistro Sichuan Garlic Chicken is a Sam’s Club find. I’ve also reviewed the Ramen Bistro Japanese Miso and Korean Gochujang Beef. This Sichuan one is the spiciest Ramen Bistro I’ve had.

Produced in the United States by Nissin Foods (U.S.A.) Co., Inc.

What’s in the Package

Everything is already in the cup. You get chili-infused wheat noodles with the seasoning powder on top, plus dried bok choy, carrot strips, minced garlic and soy protein crumbles.

How to Cook Nissin Cup Noodles Ramen Bistro Sichuan Garlic Chicken

Hot Water Method

1. Fold back the lid halfway and pour boiling water up to the inside fill line.
2. Close the lid and let it sit for 5 minutes.
3. Stir well. Scrape the bottom so the seasoning and garlic mix into the broth.

Microwave Method

1. Remove the lid.
2. Add room temperature water up to the inside fill line.
3. Microwave uncovered on high (1000W) for 2 minutes and 20 seconds.
4. Let it stand for 3 minutes, then stir. Scrape the bottom so the seasoning and garlic mix into the broth.

How Does It Taste

It smells really good, like Sichuan peppers. The broth is almost creamy. I think there’s some milk powder in there. The flavor combination is just comforting to me.

It’s a 1.5 out of 5 on viscosity. It’s kind of salty, at least to me. James didn’t think it was as salty. I’d fill the water just a little above the line.

The noodles are chili-infused, like the Japanese Miso one from this line. That’s where the heat comes from. It hits the back of your throat.

The soy protein chunks weren’t for me. The texture was dry and a little chalky. Spice is a 2 out of 5.

How Does It Compare

Of the Nissin Ramen Bistro cups, this one has the most heat. The Japanese Miso has chili-infused noodles too, but the bowl is milder. The Korean Gochujang Beef has more going on flavor-wise. The Sichuan Garlic Chicken is the spiciest and the saltiest.

How to Level Up Nissin Cup Noodles Ramen Bistro Sichuan Garlic Chicken

Melt a slice of American cheese in. It’s the perfect cheese for this creamy broth. Crack an egg in while it cooks, then top it with fresh scallions and some chili oil. And use a little more water than the fill line for the salt.

Final Verdict

Honestly, this one is fire. The Nissin Ramen Bistro Sichuan Garlic Chicken is the spiciest Ramen Bistro, and it tastes like Sichuan pepper. It’s a little salty, so add a bit more water. I’d 100% buy it again.
