Cook the instant ramen noodles according to package directions, typically by boiling in water for 2-3 minutes. Drain thoroughly and set aside. Discard the seasoning packets.

While the noodles cook, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Stir in the red pepper flakes and cook for another 15-30 seconds, allowing the chili flavor to infuse the oil.

Pour in the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, chili oil, Sriracha, and freshly squeezed lime juice. Stir well to combine and bring the sauce to a gentle simmer.

Add the drained cooked noodles directly into the simmering sauce in the skillet. Add half of the sliced green onions and half of the chopped fresh basil.

Using tongs or a spatula, toss the noodles vigorously until they are thoroughly coated with the chili garlic lime sauce and the herbs are well distributed.

Serve the noodles immediately in bowls, garnished with the remaining sliced green onions, fresh basil, and an extra sprinkle of red pepper flakes, if desired.
