2) While the chicken cooks, whisk 1 tbsp lime juice, 1 tbsp tamarind paste, 2 tbsp brown sugar, and 2 tbsp fish sauce together in a small bowl and set aside.
3) After the cook, remove chicken from packaging, pat dry, and cut into cubes. Run rice noodles under cool water and separate any strands that may be stuck together. Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the rice noodles followed by the reserved fish sauce mixture, stirring to incorporate, cook for 2-3 minutes or until noodles are coated and warmed through.
4) Divide noodles between plates and top with chicken, mung beans, peanuts, and cilantro. Garnish with fresh lime juice just before serving.
