Mix garlic powder, brown sugar, oyster sauce, light soy sauce, hoisin sauce, white wine, Shaoxing wine, black bean paste, and Chinese 5 spice in a bowl to create the marinade.
Marinate the chicken thighs in the mixture for at least 1 hour, but no longer than 24 hours.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the marinated chicken thighs on a baking sheet fitted with a baking rack.
Add water under the baking rack to create steam and prevent the pan from burning the marinade.
Bake the chicken for 25-30 minutes or until fully cooked and slightly charred.
Boil noodles per package instructions. Drain, rinse under cold water, and toss with a little oil to prevent sticking.
Heat oil in a wok or large pan over medium-high heat.
