Prepare the rice noodles according to the package instructions, ensuring they are soft but not mushy. Drain and set aside.
Slice the chicken thighs into thin strips and mince the garlic. Wash and chop the Chinese broccoli into bite-sized pieces, separating the stems and leaves.
In a small bowl, mix together the oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and white pepper. Set this sauce mixture aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds, or until aromatic.
Add the chicken slices to the wok and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes, until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the wok, followed by the beaten eggs. Scramble the eggs for 1–2 minutes until cooked through.
Toss in the Chinese broccoli stems and stir-fry for 1–2 minutes, then add the leaves. Stir-fry for another minute until the greens are tender but still crisp.
Add the cooked chicken back into the wok, followed by the cooked rice noodles. Pour the sauce mixture over the noodles and stir-fry everything together for 2–3 minutes, ensuring the sauce evenly coats all ingredients.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve the Pad See Ew hot and enjoy!
