Step 1
Boil water in a large pot. Add noodles and cook until tender, ~4-5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
Slice beef against the grain into 1/4-inch-thick strips. Cut Chinese broccoli into 2-inch pieces.
Step 3
Whisk soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, palm sugar, and fish sauce in a small bowl.
Step 4
Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until it shimmers, ~60 seconds.
Step 5
Add garlic and chilies (if using). Cook, stirring, until fragrant, ~30 seconds.
