Cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions, omitting the seasoning packet. Once cooked, drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy. Stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper.
Add the cooked ramen noodles, shredded chicken (if using), grated carrot, sliced green onions, and bean sprouts to the bowl with the eggs. Gently toss everything until well combined.
In a small bowl, mix the chicken broth with the cornstarch and minced garlic to create a slurry. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Scoop about 1/3 cup of the noodle mixture into the skillet to form a patty. Flatten slightly with a spatula.
Cook the patty for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining mixture, adding more oil as needed.
Once all the patties are cooked, wipe the skillet clean and pour in the chicken broth slurry. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened into a sauce (about 2 minutes).
Drizzle the sauce over the cooked Egg Foo Yung patties and serve immediately. Garnish with extra sliced green onions if desired.
