Cook the pancit canton noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and chicken broth. Pour the mixture into the wok and bring to a simmer.
Season with ground black pepper to taste.
Add the cooked pancit canton noodles into the wok. Toss everything together, ensuring the noodles are well coated in the sauce and evenly combined with the chicken, shrimp, and vegetables.
