In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, sesame oil, ginger and garlic.
Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and brown on both sides. Process in portions and place on a plate. Cover to keep warm.Add more vegetable oil if necessary.
In the meantime, cook the pasta according to the package instructions and drain well in a colander.
Add carrots, onions, peppers and cabbage to the hot pan. Cook until crispy and tender. Add pasta, cooked chicken and sauce to pan.Stir to coat and simmer until warm and coated in sauce. Top with spring onions. For best results, serve promptly.

Notes

Cut the chicken into thin strips for quick and easy cooking. Replace the chicken with beef, pork or shrimp.The sauce can be made up to a day in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
There are many different Asian noodles that are suitable for this recipe, such as yakisoba noodles, soba noodles, Chinese wheat flour noodles, and even ramen noodles. Follow the package instructions to prepare the pasta and add it to the pan.
Other vegetables that can be added or substituted include shiitake mushrooms, broccoli, peas, zucchini, bok choy, bean sprouts, and celery.
If your family likes stir-fries with additional sauce, simply double the sauce ingredients.You can easily make this dish in a skillet or a wok as both work well.
Any pepper color will do. I just like the sweet taste and bright color of red peppers.
Chinese cabbage is sometimes difficult to find. If so, replace it with kale.
