Cook the flat rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, and sugar. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and sliced onion. Stir-fry for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add your choice of protein (chicken, shrimp, or tofu) and cook until it's no longer pink or until the tofu is lightly browned.
Push the protein to one side of the wok and add the broccoli florets and bok choy to the other side. Stir-fry the vegetables for 2-3 minutes until they start to become tender.
Combine the cooked noodles with the stir-fried ingredients in the wok.
Pour the sauce mixture over the noodles and toss everything together until well-coated. If you like it spicy, add some crushed red pepper flakes.
Continue stir-frying for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and well combined.
Serve your Kuaytiaw hot, garnished with fresh cilantro leaves and lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor. Enjoy!
