Instructions
- 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the rice noodles and cook according to package directions until just tender with a slight chew, about 4–6 minutes. Drain in a colander, rinse briefly under cold water to stop cooking, and toss with 1 tsp of the garlic-infused oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.

Heat 2 tbsp garlic-infused oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the scallion greens and cook, stirring, until softened and bright green, about 2 minutes.
