Soak the gluten-free rice noodles in cold water for about 10 minutes until they soften. Drain and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan or wok over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken breast and cook until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced onion and minced garlic, sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
Add the julienned carrot, green beans, and shredded cabbage to the pan. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Stir in the cooked chicken breast with the vegetables.
Pour in the gluten-free soy sauce and chicken broth. Stir well to combine.
Add the soaked rice noodles to the pan. Toss gently to coat the noodles with the sauce and combine all the ingredients. Keep cooking until the noodles are fully cooked and have absorbed most of the liquid, about 5 minutes.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the Pansit Bihon hot, garnished with lemon slices. Squeeze lemon juice over the noodles before eating for an extra burst of flavor.
