Begin by soaking the rice noodles in warm water for about 5 minutes until they are just pliable. Drain the noodles and let them dry on a clean kitchen towel for another 5 minutes.
In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). This temperature is essential for achieving a crispy texture without absorbing too much oil.
Once the oil is hot, carefully add a handful of rice noodles to the oil. Fry for about 1-2 minutes or until they puff up and turn golden. Be cautious as the oil can splatter.
Remove the fried noodles from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and chili powder.
While the noodles are still warm, sprinkle the spice mixture over them and toss gently to coat evenly.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the crispy noodles for a fresh burst of flavor.
Serve the crispy noodles immediately as a crunchy snack or an eye-catching garnish on salads and mains.
