  2. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and let the soup simmer uncovered for about 15 minutes, until the chicken cooks through.
  3. While chicken simmers, whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and chili oil in a bowl until combined.
  4. After simmering, remove chicken, shred it with forks, and set aside while the soup continues to simmer.
  5. Return pot to medium heat, stir in noodles and carrots, cook for 3-4 minutes until tender, stirring occasionally.
  6. Once noodles are cooked, return shredded chicken, gently stir until everything is heated through.
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning, serve soup in bowls garnished with scallion greens and drizzle with flavorful sauce.
