In a medium bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients. Add the chicken and stir to coat. Let marinade at room temperature for 1 hour.

In a large sauce pan, head the peanut oil over medium heat. Wait about 2 minutes until the oil is very hot. Add the garlic, stirring occasionally until it starts to turn golden brown. Add in the turmeric and stir, cooking an additional minute.

Add in the marinated chicken and all of the sauce. Stir together and let sit for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the chicken stock and cover. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 20 minutes.

Prepare the noodles according to the package (NOTE: some noodles require soaking before cooking). When finished cooking, rinse with cool water to stop the noodles from cooking further.

When the chicken has finished cooking, add the fish sauce and sambal oelek. Stir and taste. If it needs more salt, add 1 TB of fish sauce at a time until it reaches your preferred flavor.

Place noodles in a deep bowl. Top with chicken and broth, cilantro, bean sprouts and peanuts. Add additional sambal oelek if you want a but more spice. Mix together and serve immediately.

Enjoy!
