Cannot use puppeteer because it fails loading yargs/yargs dependency

Question

I'm trying to run a chromium browser on my AWS Lambda (node.js). This is the code I'm using

import chromium from 'chrome-aws-lambda';

...

  const browser = await chromium.puppeteer.launch({
    args: chromium.args,
    defaultViewport: chromium.defaultViewport,
    executablePath: await chromium.executablePath,
    headless: true,
    ignoreHTTPSErrors: true,
  });

  const page = await browser.newPage();

However, when running my application locally, this error is being thrown:

ERROR: Do not know how to load path: ../../node_modules/@puppeteer/browsers/node_modules/yargs/yargs

Inside the puppeteer library, it fails on this line:

const yargs_1 = __importDefault(require("yargs/yargs"));

Any idea on how to fix this?
