Directions:
Place noodles in a bowl; add enough warm water to cover and let sit until soft, about 15 min. Drain.

Combine broth, pepper, garlic, ginger, zests, lemon juice and 3 tbsp fish sauce in a large saucepan. Season with salt (depending on your chicken stock). Bring to a simmer, add noodles and cook 3 min more.

Using tongs, transfer noodles to a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm.

Add mushrooms to broth; season with salt, simmer 3 min more.

Add chicken and coconut milk and simmer, stirring, until chicken is just cooked, about 3 min.

Stir in spinach until it begins to wilt, about 1 min. Add chopped cilantro and season with remaining 1 tbsp fish sauce.

Either divide noodles among bowls (if you are serving right then) or add to soup.
