Ingredients
Instructions
-
Start by preparing the bok choy. Cut off the bottom end of the bok choy and separate the leaves. If the leaves are large, you can cut them into smaller, bite-sized pieces.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and chili paste. This flavorful sauce will be the key to infusing the bok choy with a delicious blend of aromatics and heat.
-
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the bok choy to the pan and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the leaves start to wilt and become tender.
-
Pour the sauce over the bok choy in the skillet. Continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring that the sauce evenly coats the bok choy and all the flavors meld together.
-
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Be mindful of the salt as soy sauce is already salty. Stir well to combine and let the bok choy cook for an additional minute.
-
Once the bok choy is cooked to your desired tenderness, remove the skillet from the heat. Transfer the Spicy Chili Garlic Bok Choy to a serving dish.
-
Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for an extra burst of flavor and a pop of color. These toppings add a lovely crunch and freshness to the dish.
