Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a pot over medium-high. Add 8 oz sliced pork or chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add 1 cup kimchi and cook for 2 minutes, stirring, until fragrant and slightly softened.
Step 3
Pour in 4 cups water and bring to a boil. Add the ramen noodles and both seasoning packets, then cook until noodles are tender, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in 3 sliced green onions and simmer for 1 minute. Serve hot, garnished with extra kimchi if desired.
Step 5
Taste and adjust with salt or pepper if needed, though the seasoning packet usually provides enough flavor.
