Mix the soy sauce, ginger, chillies and onions and marinate the chicken one hour in this mixture. Drain the fluid (but don't throw it away) and fry the chicken 5 minutes. Add the green beans, pour the remaining marinade back in and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the bean sprouts and the tomatoes. In the meantime, cook the noodles according to instructions. Stir the chicken mixture through the noodles and decorate with egg slices.
