Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and season with black pepper and a bit of soy sauce. Let it marinate for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Soak the Noodles

    Soak the wide rice noodles in hot water for about 20-30 minutes until softened. Drain and set aside.

  3. 3

    Chop the Vegetables

    Julienne the bell pepper and carrot. Chop the green onions and set aside. Wash the basil leaves and set aside as well.

Cooking

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

    Cook the Chicken

    Add the marinated chicken to the pan and stir-fry until it's cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 6

    Add Garlic and Vegetables

    Add the minced garlic, bell pepper, and carrot to the pan. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.

  4. 7

    Mix in Noodles and Sauces

    Add the soaked noodles, soy sauce, oyster sauce, chili paste, fish sauce, and sugar to the pan. Toss everything together, ensuring the noodles are well coated in the sauces.
