Preparation
Step 1
Make the fried shallots: In a small skillet, heat ¼-inch of oil until shimmering. Working in small batches, add a handful of shallots, and cook, turning frequently, until golden, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer fried shallots to a paper towel lined plate.
Step 2
Make the soup: In a medium pot, heat the oil over medium-high. Add the chicken and brown on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken to a plate.
Step 3
Reduce the heat to medium and add the ginger, turmeric, and cumin. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Step 4
Pour the broth into the pot and return the chicken. Bring to a boil and then reduce to medium-low. Cover and gently simmer until the chicken breasts are just cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes. Turn off heat. Using tongs or a slotted spoon remove the chicken breast to a plate and let cool slightly. Discard skin and bones and shred chicken meat. Keep warm.
Step 5
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the rice noodles or thin spaghetti and cook until al dente per package instructions. Drain.
Step 6
Add noodles to broth and serve brothy noodles topped with pulled chicken, herbs, fried shallots, and black pepper.
