Sauce:
In a bowl, combine brown sugar, soy sauce, oyster sauce, whiskey, mirin, sambal, and garlic; set aside.
Stir-Fry:
In a wok or a very large skillet, heat 1 T. canola oil over medium-high heat. Pour in eggs; cook, stirring, until eggs form large curds. Transfer to a medium bowl; cover to keep warm. Wipe out or clean the pan if there is any stuck egg.
Toss chicken breasts with sesame oil and salt. Heat 1 T. canola oil in wok over high heat, until it smokes; add chicken; stir-fry until just cooked through and no longer pink, 4 - 5 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with the eggs; cover.
Add remaining 2T. oil to the pan over high heat. When it smokes, add scallions, ginger, and garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant and scallions are bright green, 20 seconds. Add broccoli, mushrooms, and broth; cook, stirring, until broccoli turns bright green and stock is almost evaporated, 2 - 3 minutes. Add noodles, chicken and eggs, and sauce to wok; cook, tossing, until warmed though, noodles are cooked, and sauce at the bottom of the wok bubbles and thickens, 4 - 5 minutes.
