Preparation

  1. Cover noodles in hot water while preparing the other ingredients. Heat a pot of water until steam rises.
  2. Put all but a tablespoon of the oil in a wok or large skillet, and turn heat to high. When it smokes, add the chicken, and stir until it loses its color; it doesn’t cook through. Remove with slotted spoon.
  3. Add bean sprouts, peas and shiitakes. Stir until wilted and beginning to brown. Add sauces and wine. Remove from the pan.
  4. Drain noodles, and dip them in the boiling water with tongs or in a strainer for about 5 seconds. Drain. Add remaining oil and the egg to pan, still over high heat. Stir to scramble. Add drained noodles and cooked ingredients, and toss, lifting (scrape, if necessary) repeatedly until all are mixed together and hot. Garnish, and serve.
