Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Bok choy
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil (or avocado oil)
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Wash the bok choy thoroughly and cut each head into halves or quarters lengthwise, depending on size. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil (or avocado oil). Allow the oil to heat up until shimmering.
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds, ensuring they don't burn.
Add the bok choy to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes, tossing frequently, until the leaves are wilted and the stems are tender-crisp.
Drizzle the soy sauce (or tamari) over the bok choy and stir well to coat evenly.
Remove the skillet from heat and add the sesame oil. Toss to combine.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving plate.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired, for garnish. Serve immediately.
