- In the same pan, pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Stir in the oyster sauce until well combined.
- Add the cooked noodles to the broth and toss gently to coat them in the sauce.
- Divide the noodles between serving bowls and top with the cooked wontons, stir-fried bok choy, and garnish with chopped green onions.
- Serve hot and enjoy the rich flavors of this classic dish!
