Boil a pot of water and cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced shallot, and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the carrot, cabbage, and red bell pepper to the pan. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
Push the vegetables to one side of the pan and add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the sliced chicken and stir-fry until fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes.
Move the chicken and vegetables to the side of the pan and crack an egg in the empty space. Scramble the egg until cooked and then mix everything together.
Add the cooked rice noodles to the pan. Pour the chicken broth, fish sauce, lime juice, and sprinkle with brown sugar and chili flakes over the noodles. Toss everything together to combine and ensure the noodles are evenly coated with sauce.
Continue to stir-fry until everything is heated through, about 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasoning to your taste if necessary.
Transfer the noodles to serving plates and garnish with chopped scallions, fresh cilantro, and fried shallots.
Serve hot and enjoy your Soy-Free Mi Goreng Noodles!
