👨‍🍳 Instructions

Soak the bean threads in a large bowl of hot water until soft, about 15 minutes; drain and cut into bite-size lengths.

Divide the noodles into 4 bowls.

Bring the chicken broth, garlic, ginger, and lemongrass to a boil in a large saucepan; reduce heat to medium-low and cook the mixture at a simmer until fragrant, about 15 minutes.

Add the chicken and shrimp to the soup; simmer until the chicken pieces are cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes.

Stir the lime juice and fish sauce through the soup.

Ladle the soup over the noodles; top with jalapeño pepper slices and cilantro to serve.
