Soak dry wide rice noodles in warm water for about 2 hours, or 1 hour if the water is kept warm.

Tear a noodle apart to check if it's done soaking.

Cut half an onion into strips and separate the white part from the green part of the green onions, cutting them into 2-inch sections.

Slice the chicken into bigger pieces, not thicker, and marinate with soy sauce, sugar, white pepper powder, baking soda, cornstarch, water, and optional rice wine until the liquid disappears.

Add a touch of oil to the marinated chicken and mix well.

Prepare bean sprouts and crack 2 eggs.

Mix the stir-fry sauce by combining soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, and white pepper powder.

Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the rehydrated rice noodles for 2-3 minutes, then drain and mix with a little oil and 2 tablespoons of the stir-fry sauce.

Preheat a pan over medium-high heat and add oil, then stir-fry the onion and white part of the green onion until coated with oil.

Add bean sprouts and stir-fry briefly to remove raw taste while preserving crunchiness, adding a little sugar and dark soy sauce.

Remove the vegetables from the pan once lightly cooked.

Add oil to the pan and stir-fry the chicken until the edges change color, then add garlic and continue stir-frying.

When chicken is about 50% done, add dark soy sauce for color and a little water, stirring until it becomes a sauce that coats the chicken, then remove from the pan.

Using the leftover oil in the pan, crack the eggs and stir-fry until half cooked, then add the rice noodles and let them pan-fry for 1 to 1.5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the rest of the premixed sauce to the noodles and stir-fry gently until the liquid evaporates.

Return all the ingredients to the pan and mix everything together.
