Instructions
Prepare The Noodles
- Cook the noodles according to the instructions on the back of the package. To test whether they’ve been cooked enough, take a noodle and chew on it to make sure it’s no longer dry.
- Rinse the noodles with cold water to stop cooking; otherwise, they will become mushy.
- Drain thoroughly to get rid of excess water.
- In a large bowl, mix the noodles with oil and soy sauce until evenly coated. Set aside.
Prepare The Chicken
- Add chicken to a medium mixing bowl, along with cornstarch, oyster sauce, Shaoxing wine, white pepper powder, and oil. Marinate for 20 minutes.
Stir Fry The Noodles
- Gather all the ingredients before stir-frying the noodles. We need to cook them on high heat, adding ingredients to the wok one after the other.
- Heat a large wok on high heat until very hot.
- Add oil, and once the hot is hot and shimmery, add ginger and shallots. Stir-fry for 10 seconds.
- Add the marinated chicken with the marinade and cook for 5-6 minutes until the chicken is almost cooked, stirring frequently.
- Now add carrot, cabbage, and scallions, and stir-fry for another 30 seconds.
- Add soy sauce, sesame oil, white pepper powder, and salt, and mix everything well.
- Finally, add the prepared noodles and stir-fry everything together to heat the noodles through and distribute the chicken and vegetables.
- Check for salt and sauces and add more to taste.
- Serve hot.
