Submerge noodles in boiling water and permit them to sit for 5 minutes; carefully pour off excess water and set aside.

Add minced garlic, grated ginger, broth, ketchup, lime juice, sugar and fish sauce to the pan; stir until well combined. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Add the cooked noodles and reserved chicken; toss everything together until well incorporated. Heat through to a simmer.
