Begin by preparing the chicken: slice the boneless chicken thigh into thin strips.
In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of gluten-free soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of oyster sauce, and a pinch of white pepper. Add the sliced chicken to this marinade and let it sit for 10 minutes.
Cook the gluten-free rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken strips and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and sautΓ© for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the gluten-free dark soy sauce, brown sugar, salt, and remaining soy sauce to the pan. Stir to combine all ingredients.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Add the cooked noodles and mix well to coat them with the sauce.
Add the cooked chicken back into the pan and toss everything together.
Serve the Kolo Mee in bowls, garnished with chopped spring onions and a sprinkle of white pepper.
