Instructions

Step 1: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 8 oz dried egg noodles and cook for 4 minutes until just tender but firm. Drain and toss with 2 tbsp sesame oil to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and stir-fry for 30 seconds until aromatic but not browned.
Step 3: Add the drained noodles to the wok along with 3 tbsp light soy sauce, 1 tbsp dark soy sauce, 1 tsp sugar, and 1/4 tsp white pepper. Toss continuously for 2-3 minutes until noodles are evenly coated and heated through.
Step 4: Stir in 1/2 cup chopped fresh chives and cook for an additional 1 minute until chives are just wilted and fragrant. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
