- Add Fresh Ingredients: Toss in the sliced chili peppers and green onions. Let the peppers simmer for a minute to infuse heat into the broth.
- Combine the Noodles and Broth: Gently add the cooked ramen noodles to the pot, letting them soak up the flavors for just a minute.
- Finish with Freshness: Just before serving, add in the bean sprouts and cilantro.
- Taste and Adjust: Give your soup a taste! Add more lime juice or soy sauce if needed to suit your preferences.
- Serve Hot: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with extra green onions and cilantro.
