Instructions

  1. Prepare the glass noodles: Soak the noodles in room temperature water according to package instructions. Then drain the noodles using a colander. Cut them into shorter pieces and toss with oil to prevent them from sticking.
  2. Make the sauce: While the noodles are soaking, mix together all the sauce ingredients. Set aside.
  3. Stir fry the chicken: Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and sauté until cooked through, about 6 minutes.
  4. Stir fry the veggies: Transfer the chicken to a plate, and add the remaining oil to the skillet. Add garlic, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add onions, cabbage, tomato, carrots, and white pepper to the skillet and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Cook the eggs: Move the vegetables to one side of the pan, and add the beaten eggs to the empty space in the pan. Scramble the eggs until the eggs are cooked through.
  6. Stir fry everything together: Add chicken back to the skillet, and then add noodles, and the sauce. Stir-fry until the noodles are soft and everything’s coated with the sauce. (Taste and add more soy sauce if necessary. Sprinkle the chopped green onions and mix gently. If your noodles are a little dry, you can also add some water, one tablespoon at a time. )

Notes

  • How to store leftovers: This dish is best enjoyed fresh, as noodles tend to lose their texture when stored for an extended period. However, if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 to 3 days. 
  • To reheat: Place it in a skillet or wok over medium-low heat. Add a splash of water or broth to prevent it from drying out. Then stir-fry until heated through. Be sure not to overheat, as this can make the noodles mushy.
  • To Prevent glass noodles from sticking together during cooking, make sure to soak them properly in warm water until they are soft and pliable. Also, when stir-frying, keep the heat high and stir continuously to prevent sticking.
