A quick and flavorful side dish that brings together the crispness of bok choy with the heat of garlic and spices.

  • Total Time: 10

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb bok choy (halved or quartered)
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil (or olive oil)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger (minced, optional)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  • Wash the bok choy thoroughly to remove any grit. Slice it in half or quarters, depending on your preference.
  • In a large skillet or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the minced garlic and ginger, sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Add the bok choy to the skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until it starts to wilt but remains crisp.
  • Pour in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sprinkle red pepper flakes. Stir well to combine and cook for another minute.
  • Remove from heat, garnish with sesame seeds if desired, and serve immediately.
