Slice onion thinly and set aside. Crush garlic with palm of hand and add to onion.
Heat oil in a small pot. Once oil is hot add onions and sautee. As onions become soft and translucent add crushed garlic and jalapeño. Allow garlic to brown lightly and jalapeño to toast.
Once onions and garlic become fragrant remove jalapeño and discard.
Stir in fideo and toast on high heat until noodles start to brown. Pour chicken stock into the pot and begin cooking noodles, about 6 minutes, stirring constantly.
Next add tomato sauce and finish cooking, another 3 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.
Serve hot in a bowl with queso fresco and cilantro sprigs as garnish.
