Place the leftover rotisserie chicken carcass and meat into a large stockpot and cover with water.
Add rock sugar, star anise, fish sauce, sliced ginger, and halved onions to the pot.
Stir in the chicken bouillon base.
Bring the broth to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 45 minutes.
While the broth simmers, cook the rice noodles in a separate pot of boiling water according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
Assemble the bowls by dividing the cooked noodles, shredded chicken from the carcass, and cooked mini wontons (if using) among them.
Strain the hot broth directly into each bowl.
Garnish with chopped green onions, cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
Add sriracha and hoisin sauce to your liking, stir, and serve immediately.
Refrigerate broth in an airtight container up to 3 days; freeze up to 2 months. Store noodles and wontons separately and reheat broth gently before assembling.
Yes. Simmer the broth up to 2 days ahead and refrigerate separately from noodles and toppings. Reheat gently before serving to preserve flavor.
Regular granulated sugar works as a 1:1 swap, though rock sugar dissolves slowly for cleaner broth. Brown sugar adds deeper notes.
Simmer for 30–40 minutes until the broth is fragrant and golden. Star anise and ginger should perfume the pot noticeably.
Yes. Use the shredded rotisserie meat, fresh herbs, bean sprouts, and rice noodles as your base. Other proteins like beef or shrimp work too.
Fish sauce is central to pho flavor, but start with 1 tbsp and adjust to taste. No direct substitute captures the same umami depth.
