DIRECTIONS
1
To pre-prep noodles, boil them in salted water per package directions, rinse or toss with ice cubes to cool, and drain. Do in advance and chill. (Note: Makes about 3/4 cup cooked.)
2
To make, layer in a 16-ounce wide-mouth jar (in order) the sauce, bell pepper (extra-thinly sliced), chicken, noodles, and cilantro.
3
To store, seal and chill in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
4
To prepare, ideally remove jar from the refrigerator 30 minutes in advance. Remove lid, add boiling broth, replace lid and let stand to “simmer” for 5 minutes. For a hotter soup, transfer to a microwave-safe bowl and heat as desired.
5
To enjoy, shake or stir and enjoy from the jar or a bowl. Add salt, lime juice and/or hot sauce to taste. Garnish with peanuts or toasted coconut flakes, if desired.
