Ingredients

For the sauce:

2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
1 teaspoon fish sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons water plus more, to taste

For the noodles:

8 ounces wide rice noodles fresh or dried
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic minced
6 ounces chicken thighs boneless and skinless, trimmed of excess fat, sliced
2 large eggs
6 ounces Chinese broccoli rinsed and cut into small pieces

Directions

In a bowl, add the light soy sauce, the dark soy sauce, the fish sauce, the oyster sauce, the white vinegar, the brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of the water and whisk to combine. Set the sauce mixture aside.
Cook the rice noodles for 1-2 minutes less than suggested on the package directions.
In a wok or a high-sided skillet over medium heat, add the vegetable oil.
Add the garlic to the hot oil and cook, while stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the chicken slices to the hot oil and cook, while stirring occasionally, until they are nearly cooked through, about 2-3 minutes..
Push the chicken mixture to one side of the wok.
Crack the eggs in the open side of the wok and cook, while stirring gently, until scrambled, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the Chinese broccoli, the rice noodles, and the sauce mixture to the wok and until everything is combined. If the sauce seems too thick, add the extra water, a little at a time, until it reaches the desired consistency.
Cook until the noodles are evenly coated, caramelized, and cooked through and the chicken slices reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 1 minute.
Serve immediately.
