Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Pat the chicken wings dry and season with Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
  2. Place the wings on a lined baking sheet and bake for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and cooked through.
  3. In a small bowl, mix barbecue sauce, honey, hot sauce, melted butter, Cajun seasoning, and smoked paprika. Brush the glaze over the cooked wings and bake for another 5 minutes until sticky and glossy.
  4. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook the ramen noodles for 2–3 minutes until tender, then drain and set aside.
  5. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the smoked sausage slices and cook for 3–4 minutes until browned on both sides. Remove and set aside.
  6. In the same skillet, add the shrimp and season with Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and lightly browned. Remove and set aside.
  7. Add butter, minced garlic, diced onion, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 4–5 minutes until the vegetables are tender and fragrant.
  8. Stir in soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, and cayenne pepper. Add the cooked ramen noodles, sausage, and shrimp back into the skillet. Toss everything together until the noodles are fully coated in the Cajun garlic butter sauce.
  9. Season the boiled eggs with a little Cajun seasoning and paprika.
  10. Serve the Cajun ramen noodles in bowls topped with glazed chicken wings, shrimp, sausage, seasoned boiled eggs, peppers, onions, and chopped parsley.

Notes
