Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Toss in the spaghetti and cook it until it’s tender but still has a bit of bite—about 12 minutes or so. Once it’s done, drain the noodles and set them aside.
Step 2
In another pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Stir in the chicken, onion soup mix, chile-garlic sauce, garlic, and ginger until everything’s well combined. Add the broccoli and let it simmer gently for about 5 minutes, just until the broccoli is tender.
Step 3
To serve, divide the spaghetti between four bowls and ladle the hot soup mixture over the noodles. Enjoy!
Best Foods To Serve With This
Serve with a side of steamed or stir-fried vegetables to add color and nutrients. A simple green salad with a light dressing also pairs well. For extra protein, consider topping with grilled chicken, tofu, or a fried egg.
How To Store For Later
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of water or broth to keep the noodles from drying out. Avoid freezing, as the texture may change.
