Begin by slicing the boneless chicken breast into thin strips and set them aside.
Boil 200 grams of hakka noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and rinse the noodles under cold water to remove excess starch. Toss them with a teaspoon of vegetable oil to prevent sticking and set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large wok or pan over medium-high heat.
Add 1 teaspoon of finely chopped ginger and 2 teaspoons of finely chopped garlic, stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced chicken to the wok and stir-fry until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the sliced green bell pepper, julienned carrot, and shredded cabbage to the pan. Stir-fry the vegetables with the chicken for another 3 minutes until they are slightly softened but still crisp.
Add the boiled noodles into the wok and toss everything together.
Pour in 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, and 1 tablespoon of red chili sauce. Mix well until the noodles are evenly coated with the sauces.
Sprinkle in 0.5 teaspoon of white pepper powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper.
Continue to toss the noodles over high heat for another 2 minutes, ensuring everything is thoroughly combined and heated through.
Garnish with chopped spring onions and serve hot.
