Step 1

Preheat wok or skillet over high heat. When it's hot, add cooking oil. Add the aromatics and stir fry for about 1 minute. Add tom yum paste and stir fry for another 20 seconds. If you are using raw meat or seafood instead, add them here and stir fry until they are no longer pink. Add your veggies, in my case, celery pieces. Stir fry for another 20 seconds

Step 2

Add noodles followed by chicken broth and seasonings, bring to a gentle simmer. If you are using leftover rotisserie chicken add it here. Add tomatoes and stir and toss to make sure the seasonings coat the noodles evenly. The residual heat will soften the tomatoes. Turn off the heat

Step 3

Sprinkle the chopped green onion and serve immediately
