Heat a small amount of oil in a saucepan over medium heat.

Use warm stock to speed up the process.

Ensure the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Add the cooked chicken and let it heat through.
Shred the chicken for easier eating.
Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions and divide them among serving bowls.
Rinse the noodles under cold water after cooking to prevent sticking.

Add a wedge of lime on the side for an optional citrus touch.
