Directions
Break the ramen noodles into small pieces right in a bowl. Add the seasoning packets on top, then pour just enough boiling water to cover the noodles. Cover the bowl and let it sit for about 5 minutes until the noodles soften. Once they’re tender, stir in the mayonnaise, shredded chicken, jalapeno peppers, and hot sauce until everything is well combined. Pop it in the fridge for at least an hour so it can chill and the flavors can meld together. When it’s nicely chilled, give it a good stir and it’s ready to serve.
