Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced shallots and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Add the sliced chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes until browned and cooked through. Add the shrimp and cook for another 2-3 minutes until pink and fully cooked. Remove from the wok and set aside.
In the same wok, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the carrot and cabbage, and stir-fry for 2 minutes until slightly softened.
Push the vegetables to one side of the wok. Crack the eggs into the empty side and scramble them lightly until cooked through.
Return the chicken and shrimp to the wok. Add the cooked noodles to the wok and toss to combine.
Pour in the sweet soy sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and chili paste (if using). Toss the ingredients together until the noodles are well-coated in the sauce.
Continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes to ensure everything is warmed through and evenly mixed.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and fried shallots (optional).
Serve the Mie Goreng hot with lime wedges on the side for an extra zesty kick.
