Heat wok over medium-high heat. Add first part of cooking oil and then chicken to heated oil. Saute until chicken has a golden sear on the outside, 4 to 7 minutes. Remove from wok and set aside.
Return wok back to medium-high heat. Add second part of cooking oil and then onions to heated oil. Saute until softened, ~3 minutes.
Next add carrots with water (or stock if you have extra) and saute until tender, 6 to 8 minutes.
Toss snow peas, baby corn, and chicken into the wok. Push everything to the sides, forming a hole in the middle. Give the sauce a stir to get any of the corn starch that has sunk to the bottom. Pour sauce into the hole and then wait for it to darken and bubble.
Add in noodles and then toss until all the ingredients are coated. Remove from heat and play chef - season to taste with more soy sauce, hot sauce, salt, pepper, or whatever you have in your pantry.
