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
Directions
Step 1
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.
Step 2
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.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds, ensuring they don't burn.
Step 4
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.
Step 5
Drizzle the soy sauce (or tamari) over the bok choy and stir well to coat evenly.
Step 6
Remove the skillet from heat and add the sesame oil. Toss to combine.
Step 7
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving plate.
Step 8
Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired, for garnish. Serve immediately.
