In another bowl, mix together 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/2 cup sweet chili sauce, 2 teaspoons sesame oil, 2 tablespoons mirin, 1/3 cup water, and freshly cracked black pepper; set aside.

Grate a 1-inch piece of peeled fresh ginger and 6 garlic cloves.

Slice green onions, cutting the light parts thinly and the dark green parts into larger pieces for garnish.

Slice red bell pepper thinly.

In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of neutral oil (grape seed oil) over high heat until hot.

Add the chicken to the skillet and stir-fry until cooked through, about a few minutes.

Add the garlic, ginger, and sliced red bell pepper; stir and cook for about 1 minute until the peppers start to soften.

Pour in the sauce mixture and stir; cook for another minute until the sauce becomes bubbly and thick.

Add the green onions and cooked Taiwanese style sliced noodles to the skillet; toss to combine everything.
