Step 1
Bring a small pot of water to a boil, then add the 2 eggs and cook for 6-7 minutes for a soft-boiled yolk. Remove and cool in ice water, then peel and set aside.
Step 2
In a large pot, bring the 4 cups chicken broth to a simmer over medium heat. Add the 1 cup cooked chicken and 2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce, stirring until the broth turns creamy and reddish, about 3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the 2 packages ramen noodles to the broth and cook until tender, about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
Slice the peeled eggs in half. Divide the noodles and broth between two bowls, top with the egg halves and sliced green onions, and serve hot.
