Sweat the onions in the olive oil in a medium stock pot, and add diced chicken and skin and jalapeno slices.

Add salt.
3
When onions and chicken start to carmelize (I get a nice brown ring from the spices and chicken around my porcelain lined cast iron pan, approx 4-5 mins) deglaze the pan with the chicken broth.
4
Bring the soup to a boil on med-high heat, and shut off.
5
Add black pepper, lime juice and rice noodles / angel hair.
6
Noodles should cook in hot soup in 1-2 minutes.
7
Stir in fresh basil, I love basil, so I use a lot.
8
Dried basil will not be as full flavored, so only fresh should do.
9
Serve hot!
