Begin by marinating the chicken. Cut the boneless chicken breast into thin strips. In a bowl, combine the chicken strips with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce. Mix well and let it marinate for about 15 minutes.
Cook the Hakka noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain them and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Drizzle a teaspoon of sesame oil over the noodles to prevent them from sticking, and set them aside.
While the chicken is marinating, finely chop the garlic and ginger. Slice the green bell pepper, carrot, and red onion into thin strips. Chop the spring onions and set them aside separately for garnish.
In a large pan or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken strips and stir-fry until they are fully cooked and slightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the chopped garlic and ginger and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the sliced red onion, green bell pepper, and carrot. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3 minutes until they are slightly tender but still crisp.
Push the vegetables to one side of the pan and crack the eggs into the cleared space. Scramble the eggs until they are fully cooked, then mix them with the vegetables.
Add the cooked noodles to the pan along with the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Season with salt and black pepper. Toss everything together to combine well.
Return the cooked chicken to the pan and toss everything together until thoroughly mixed and heated through.
Garnish the noodles with chopped spring onions before serving. Enjoy your high protein chicken Hakka noodles hot!
