Ingredients

8 ounces chicken breast diced
3 tablespoons cooking oil
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 ounces dried bihon noodles or rice vermicelli or rice stick noodles
2 cups chicken broth
8 ounces green beans sliced
1 cup shredded cabbage
2 carrots peeled and cut into matchstick pieces
1 yellow onion diced
6 garlic cloves minced
2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 teaspoon granulated sugar

Instructions

Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Heat the oil in a wok or wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the wok.
In the same wok, cook the onions and garlic, stirring frequently, the onions begin to soften softened, about 3 minutes.
Add the cabbage, carrots, and green beans and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes more, until the vegetables are tender.
Add broth, dark soy sauce, reduced-sodium soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar to the wok and let simmer for 4 minutes.
Return the chicken to the wok.
Add the noodles and cook, stirring constantly, so that the noodles get fully coated with the sauce mixture and absorb some of the liquid.
Cover and cook for about 7 minutes, until the noodles are tender. Add more broth or a little water if needed to keep the pan from becoming dry.
Serve hot.
