Ingredients
- 1 lb baby bok choy, cut into halves or quarters, lengthwise and rinsed
- ½ Tbsp olive oil
- 2 large cloves garlic, minced
Directions
Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high. Add garlic; cook until fragrant and golden, about 30 seconds. Add bok choy, stirring to evenly coat. Add 2 tablespoons water; cover and cook 2 minutes. Remove lid and continue cooking, stirring a few times, until liquid has evaporated and bok choy is tender, about 2 minutes. Season with small amount of salt, if desired, and serve.
*Variations include:
- Using 1/2 TB toasted sesame seed oil (for oil), 2TB soy sauce instead of water to simmer, and sesame seeds at end of cooking
- Adding ginger for more aromatics, along with minced garlic. Add crushed pepper for heat if desired before covering to soften.
