Instructions
- 1
Marinate the Chicken: Toss the thinly sliced chicken thighs with 1 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tsp cornstarch. Let sit for 10 minutes.

Cook the Noodles: Boil the egg noodles according to package directions until just tender (al dente). Drain thoroughly, rinse with cold water to stop cooking, and toss with a drop of oil to prevent sticking.

Sear the Meat: Heat a wok over high heat with 1 tbsp of oil. Add the chicken in a single layer, searing for 2 minutes until browned. Remove the chicken and set aside.
- 4
Stir-Fry Vegetables: In the same wok, add a little more oil if needed. Toss in the shredded cabbage and julienned carrots. Stir-fry for 2 minutes until slightly softened but still crunchy.
- 5
Toss and Sauce: Return the chicken to the wok and add the cooked noodles and bean sprouts. Pour in the remaining 2 tbsp soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil.
- 6
Final Mix: Toss everything vigorously over high heat using two spatulas for 2-3 minutes until the noodles are evenly coated in the sauce and slightly charred. Serve immediately.
