Description

Authentic Thai stir fry made with wide rice noodles, chicken, egg, and Chinese broccoli in a savory soy and oyster sauce glaze.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 200g / 7 oz dried wide rice stick noodles, or 15 oz / 450g fresh wide flat rice noodles (Sen Yai)
  • 2 tsp dark soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp light soy sauce (or all purpose)
  • 2 tsp white vinegar
  • 2 tsp sugar (any type)
  • 3 tbsp peanut or vegetable oil, separated
  • 2 garlic cloves, very finely chopped
  • 1 cup / 150g / 5 oz chicken thighs (boneless, skinless), sliced
  • 1 large egg
  • 4 stems Chinese broccoli

Instructions

  1. Trim Chinese broccoli ends, cut into 3-inch pieces. Separate stems from leaves. Cut thick stems lengthwise so they are no wider than 0.3 inches.
  2. Prepare noodles according to packet directions and drain. Cook just before stir frying to avoid breakage.
  3. Mix all sauce ingredients in a bowl until sugar dissolves.
  4. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat.
  5. Add garlic, stir fry 15 seconds until fragrant. Add chicken and cook until it turns white but is not fully done.
  6. Add Chinese broccoli stems, cook until chicken is almost cooked through. Add leaves, stir until wilted.
  7. Push ingredients to one side, crack egg into empty space, scramble, then mix with chicken and greens.
  8. Remove chicken and vegetables from wok, scrape clean.
  9. Heat remaining 2 tbsp oil in wok until smoking. Add noodles and sauce. Toss gently to coat, allowing noodles to caramelize for 1 to 1.5 minutes.
  10. Return chicken and vegetables to wok, toss everything together quickly, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh wide flat noodles (Sen Yai) if available for the most authentic texture.
  • Do not overcook noodles in boiling water, as they will soften further during stir frying.
  • Chinese broccoli is traditional, but you can substitute broccolini or regular broccoli.
  • Dark soy provides color and depth, while light soy balances saltiness.
  • Cooking oil should have a high smoke point, such as peanut or vegetable oil.
