Start by making the fishballs. Place the white fish fillets into a food processor and blend until smooth.
Add in the gluten-free fish sauce, cornstarch, garlic powder, ground white pepper, and the egg white. Blend again until all ingredients are well combined and form a smooth paste.
With wet hands, shape the fish paste into small balls, roughly 1-inch in diameter. Set them aside on a plate.
Bring a pot of water to boil. Cook the gluten-free rice noodles according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.
In a separate large pot, bring the gluten-free chicken broth to a gentle boil. Carefully add the fishballs and allow them to cook until they float to the top, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the sesame oil and stir gently. Adjust seasoning with salt as needed.
Add the bok choy to the pot and cook until just tender, about 2 minutes.
To assemble, divide the cooked rice noodles into bowls. Ladle the soup over the noodles and distribute the fishballs and bok choy evenly.
Garnish with sliced green onions, chopped cilantro, and red chili slices.
Serve hot and enjoy your gluten-free fishball noodles.
