Description

This Easy 10-minute Spicy Garlic Bok Choy recipe is a quick and flavorful way to enjoy this nutritious vegetable. The combination of spicy garlic sauce with tender bok choy makes for a delicious side dish that pairs well with rice or noodles.


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Spicy Garlic Sauce:

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

For the Bok Choy:

  • 1 pound baby bok choy, rinsed and halved
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Spicy Garlic Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce, chili flakes, and sesame oil. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Cook the Bok Choy: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bok choy, cut side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly charred.
  3. Add the Sauce: Pour the prepared spicy garlic sauce over the bok choy. Toss to coat the bok choy evenly in the sauce.
