Sauteed Sesame Bok Choy

Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Letting the bok choy get nice and browned in some places—what the Chinese call “the breath of the wok”—adds a smoky savoriness to this fast, stir-fried side dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound baby bok choy
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon chile flakes
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Trim bottoms off of bok choy, and cut leaves crosswise into 3/4-inch slices. Fill a large bowl with cold water. Swish the bok choy around in the bowl to remove any grit, then transfer the bok choy to a salad spinner, and spin dry.
  • Wipe the bowl out, and whisk together sesame oil, chile flakes, garlic, salt and pepper. Toss bok choy with dressing.
  • Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Saute bok choy for 10 minutes, tossing fairly frequently with tongs, until tender. Transfer back to bowl, and toss with any remaining dressing.
