In the same pot, add ginger, garlic, and onion; sauté until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer.

Add rice noodles and cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in soy sauce and fish sauce to taste.

Return shredded chicken to the pot and heat through, about 2 minutes.

Serve hot, garnished with green onions, cilantro, and lime wedges.

Top with bean sprouts and chili for added crunch and heat.
