Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large pot, combine the chicken broth, halved onion, slices of ginger, star anise pods, and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.
  2. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and let the broth simmer for 15-20 minutes. Stir in fish sauce, soy sauce, and sugar, tasting to adjust flavors.
  3. While the broth simmers, boil a separate pot of water and cook the rice noodles according to package instructions, about 6-8 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water.
  4. Shred the rotisserie chicken into bite-sized pieces, discarding skin and bones. This should take about 5 minutes.
  5. Assemble bowls with cooked rice noodles, followed by a scoop of shredded chicken. Pour the hot broth over them.
  6. Strain the broth into a large measuring cup, discarding solids. Ladle the steaming broth over noodles and chicken in each bowl.
  7. Garnish with fresh herbs and lime juice, and optional jalapeños or bean sprouts. Serve with hoisin and sriracha on the side.
