- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large saucepan, heat vegetable oil and sesame oil.
- Add ginger and garlic, cook another minute, then add chicken breasts. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Sear over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Transfer chicken to a baking sheet and roast in oven for 15 minutes. Once chicken is cooked through and nicely browned, slice finely.
- In the same saucepan, over medium heat, add soy sauce and fish sauce. Mix well.
- Add chicken broth, chili flakes, star anise, dried mushrooms, carrots, and sweet potatoes. Bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Taste broth and correct seasoning if desired.
- Cook eggs in boiling water* for 7 minutes and transfer directly to a large bowl of ice water to stop them from cooking. The yolk should be soft-cooked and brightly colored. Peel carefully and set aside.
- Divide noodles between 2 large bowls. Pour broth and vegetables over noodles and add slices of roasted chicken. Add a little fresh spinach, kale, or broccoli rubble directly to the broth (it’ll cook in the heat) then top with halved eggs and green onions.
