10 Minute Garlic Bok Choy
prep time: 4 min
cook time: 6 min
Ingredients
oil
garlic
shallots
baby bok choy
soy sauce
sesame oil
crushed red pepper (optional)
Preparation
You will want to keep your baby bok choy somewhat intact, so the first thing you want to do is either halve or quarter each stalk (depending on the size of the bok choy) and wash under cold running water.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the oil. Swirl to coat the entire surface of the pan. As soon as the oil is hot, add the garlic and the shallots, and saute for 1-2 minutes, stirring continuously.
Add the bok choy, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Toss and cover. Cook for approximately 2 minutes before uncovering, tossing, and covering. Continue to cook the bok choy until white parts reach desired doneness (this varies from person to person as some prefer crunchier bok choy, while others prefer a more well-done stir-fry).
Sprinkle with crushed red pepper, if using, and drizzle with additional sesame oil, if desired.
