Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 heads baby bok choy
- 3 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 stalks green onions
Instructions
Rinse the bok choy under cold water to remove any dirt and pat them dry with paper towels. Cut each head in half lengthwise.
Mince the garlic cloves finely.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes to create the glaze.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Brush the cut sides of the bok choy halves generously with the prepared garlic soy glaze.
Place the bok choy cut side down onto the grill. Grill for 4-5 minutes or until you see nice grill marks and the bok choy has slightly charred edges.
Flip the bok choy and grill on the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes until the leaves are tender and bright green.
Remove the bok choy from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.
Sprinkle the grilled bok choy with sesame seeds and finely sliced green onions for garnish.
Serve warm as a delightful side dish or light main course, enjoying the savory and slightly sweet balance of flavors from the glaze.
