# How to Prepare:

01 - Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken to the pot and cook until lightly golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
02 - Add garlic, red bell pepper, and onion to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, about 3 to 4 minutes.

04 - Pour in chicken broth and coconut milk. Scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pot while stirring.
05 - Return cooked chicken to the pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.
06 - Stir in rice noodles, fish sauce, and brown sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender, about 5 minutes.
07 - Remove pot from heat. Stir in green onions, cilantro, basil, and lime juice. Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

# Additional Information:

01 - For optimal texture, add the rice noodles just before serving to prevent overcooking.
