Chicken and Rice Noodles in Ginger-Hoisin Broth
Browning the aromatics—ginger and shallots—and briefly cooking a few tablespoons of hoisin sauce, develops a solid flavor base for this simple soup. You can use flat, wide rice sticks or thin rice vermicelli. Either way, cook the noodles according to the package directions, then immediately divide them among individual bowls; if left to stand, the drained noodles may stick together. If you like, serve with lime wedges and Sriracha hot sauce.

01In a large pot, heat the oil until shimmering. Add the ginger and shallots, then cook, stirring, until well browned. Add the hoisin and cook, stirring, until it coats the bottom of the pot. Add 2 quarts water and bring to a simmer. Add the chicken and cook for 35 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer. Remove from the heat. Transfer the chicken to a plate and shred into bite-size pieces; discard the bones. Return the meat to pot and cook until heated. Ladle over the noodles and top with basil.See It
