# Ingredients:

→ Noodles

01 - 200g dried wide rice stick noodles or 450g fresh wide flat rice noodles (Sen Yai)

→ Sauce

02 - 2 tsp dark soy sauce
03 - 1 1/2 tbsp oyster sauce
04 - 1 tbsp light soy sauce or all-purpose soy sauce
05 - 2 tsp white vinegar
06 - 2 tsp sugar

→ Stir Fry

07 - 3 tbsp peanut or vegetable oil, separated
08 - 2 cloves garlic, very finely chopped
09 - 150g chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, sliced
10 - 1 large egg
11 - 4 stems Chinese broccoli, trimmed and cut into 7.5cm pieces, with thick stems halved lengthwise

# Instructions:

01 - Trim ends of Chinese broccoli, cut into 7.5cm pieces, separate leaves from stems, and halve thick stems vertically.
02 - Prepare noodles according to package instructions and drain. Time cooking so they’re ready just before use.
03 - Combine sauce ingredients and stir until sugar dissolves.
04 - Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large heavy-based skillet or wok over high heat.
05 - Add garlic and cook for 15 seconds. Add chicken and cook until it mostly changes from pink to white.
06 - Add Chinese broccoli stems and cook until chicken is nearly cooked through. Add leaves and cook until just wilted.
07 - Push everything to one side of the wok, crack an egg, and scramble.
08 - Remove everything from the wok and place on a plate. Scrape the wok clean.
09 - Heat 2 tbsp of oil in the wok over high heat until smoking. Add noodles and sauce, then quickly toss to caramelize the edges. Cook for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.
10 - Return chicken and vegetables to the wok. Toss quickly to combine and serve immediately.

# Notes:

01 - Cooking the chicken separately ensures caramelization for authentic flavor.
02 - Do not leave cooked noodles sitting as they may break apart in the wok.
