Stir-Fried Garlic Bok Choy

Ingredients

• 2 pounds Baby Bok Choy (washed and cut into eighths)
• 5 Garlic Cloves (minced)
• 3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 1 Shallot (minced)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
• Salt, to taste

Directions

Maintaining the integrity of the bok choy, thoroughly wash the vegetable. *Sand or grit may sometimes get into the bulb, so let’s avoid that!

In a wok or large sauce pan, bring the olive oil to a shimmer. Add garlic and shallots sautéing for one (1) minute.

Add bok choy, sesame oil, and two (2) tablespoons water. Cover immediately to let steam (2 – 3 minutes).

Uncover and cook for another 1 – 2 minutes until the stalk is soft.

Serve immediately with soy sauce (or sauce of choice) on the side. Enjoy!

Yields: 4 servings

Cook Time: 15 minutes
