Cook the noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, ginger, and half of the green onions. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the red bell pepper and carrot to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, Szechuan chili oil, brown sugar, chicken or vegetable broth, and red pepper flakes if using.
Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet with the vegetables. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss to coat them evenly with the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Serve the Szechuan Spicy Noodles hot, garnished with the remaining green onions, fresh cilantro, and chopped peanuts for an extra crunch.
