Add the shredded chicken and cooked rice noodles to the bowl with the vegetables. Toss gently to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, lime juice, grated ginger, and minced garlic. If you prefer a bit of heat, add Sriracha or chili flakes to taste.
