In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the teriyaki sauce.
In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry, and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken thighs with a pinch of salt and pepper, then cook them in the skillet for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C). Remove the chicken and set aside.
In the same skillet, pour in the prepared teriyaki sauce and bring it to a gentle simmer. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
Return the cooked chicken thighs to the skillet, spoon the glaze over the chicken, and simmer for 2 more minutes. Turn off the heat and keep warm.
In a separate large skillet or wok, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Add the julienned carrot and sliced bell pepper, and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet with the vegetables and toss everything together, heating for 2-3 minutes until well combined.
Plate the stir-fried noodles and vegetables, and place a teriyaki-glazed chicken thigh on top of each serving.
Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
