Instructions

Gather all ingredients: Slice garlic and ginger, chop scallions (dividing them into whites and greens), and prepare carrots.
In a large pot over medium heat, add chicken thighs and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 15–20 minutes until fully cooked. Remove chicken from broth.
Add garlic and ginger to the broth while the chicken cooks. Stir occasionally for about 3–5 minutes until fragrant. Include the whites of the scallions along with soy sauce, black rice vinegar, salt, and pepper.
Add dried noodles to the broth and cook according to package instructions (about 4–6 minutes) until tender.
Shred cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces and return to the pot with carrot matchsticks; cook for an additional minute until softened.
Serve soup in bowls garnished with green scallion tops and drizzle with crispy chili oil if desired.
