    In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, mirin, hoisin sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Set aside.

    Empty the Yaki Soba noodles into a colander and rinse a few times before setting aside.

    Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat, add the chicken, and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes or until browned and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Add the carrots, onion, and bell pepper to the pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables start to soften.

    Stir in the mushrooms and cabbage and cook until the mushrooms just start to release their water, about 4 minutes. Mix in the green onions and stir-fry for an additional minute.
