Directions
- 1) Bring a medium pot of water to a boil.
- 2) Add the broccoli, noodles, and a pinch of salt; simmer until tender, about 5 minutes, then drain and rinse under warm water.
- 3) Halve and juice the lime into a medium bowl.
- 4) Whisk together miso paste, vinegar, toasted sesame oil, and soy sauce with the lime juice until smooth.
- 5) Thinly slice the green onions and add them to the dressing along with the shredded carrots.
- 6) Remove the chicken from the rotisserie, shred the meat, and add it to the bowl with the broccoli and noodles, tossing to combine with the dressing.
- 7) Divide the noodles, chicken, and vegetables into two bowls and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- 8) Garnish with extra lime wedges if desired and serve.
Two tips
- Prep ahead: chop green onions and shred carrots up to a day in advance and refrigerate.
- Serving idea: add a splash of rice vinegar for extra brightness or a bit more soy sauce for saltiness, using only listed pantry items.
