Description

A simple step-by-step tutorial on How To Cook Bok Choy that is so easy! A great addition or side dish to any meal!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 23 bunches of baby bok choy
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce (sub coconut aminos if Whole30/Paleo)
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tablespoon ghee or butter (sub plant-based butter)
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (omit if you don’t want spice)

Instructions

  1. Cut off the ends of each bok choy bunch and then cut in half lengthwise.
  2. Soak leaves for a minute or two to remove dirt and grime; rinse.
  3. In a large skillet, add chicken stock, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, butter, and red pepper flakes.
  4. Bring to a medium-high heat to boil and stir to mix.
  5. Add bok choy leaves and cover; reduce heat to simmer. Carefully turn with tongs after 1.5 minutes. Remove after another 1.5 minutes.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Storage: if you have leftover bok coy, keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days. It can get a little soggy during the reheating process so we try to enjoy it immediately.
