Ginger Garlic Bok Choy Stir Fry
Ingredients
- 6 Baby Bok choy
- 1 inch ginger
- 6 garlic cloves
- 1 Tablespoon oil
- 1 Tablespoon coconut amino
- 2-3 dry Red Chili Peppers
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Cut each baby Bok Choy in half. Rinse under cold water and pat dry. Using a grater, grate the ginger and garlic. You can also finely chop them.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with 1 ½ tbsp. oil. When hot, add garlic and ginger, dry chilies and stir-fry for 20-25 seconds or until fragrant.
- Add coconut amino in the skillet. Carefully scrap the bottom of the skillet in case any ginger garlic is stuck at bottom. ( it's called de-glazing the pan) You should sense the insane aroma of these aromatics.
- Add Bok Choy face down. Let it coat the sizzling mixture. Cover and let it cook for 1-2 minutes. Flip them over. Again let it coat remaining spice mixture. Cook for another 1-2 minutes. Bok choy should look darker green. Turn off the heat.
- Transfer the Bok choy to serving bowl. Make sure to scrap off every last drip of that ginger garlic sauce. ( it's that finger licking good !!!) Season with toasted sesame seeds. Serve hot. Enjoy !
