Preparation

Soak the wheat noodles for a few minutes in warm water, just to soften them (they'll finish cooking in the pan), then drain them.
Heat the neutral oil in a wok or large pan and cook the sliced garlic and onion for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the sliced chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes until browned and cooked through.
Add the sliced carrot and cabbage, stir-fry for 3 minutes over high heat until tender but still crisp.
Add the drained noodles, soy sauce and oyster sauce, mix well with a spatula to coat all the noodles evenly.
Pour in a little stock bit by bit and keep stir-frying for 3-4 minutes, until the noodles have absorbed the liquid and are tender.
Adjust the seasoning, add a squeeze of lime just before serving and serve immediately, piping hot.
