Ingredients
- 4 heads bok choy
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce, low sodium
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, freshly grated
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 0 olive oil spray
- 0 pinch ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Remove any damaged outer leaves from the bok choy and cut them in half lengthwise. Rinse under cold water to remove any dirt between the leaves and pat dry with a towel.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, honey, sesame oil, and rice vinegar to prepare the garlic soy glaze. Set aside.
Step 4
Lightly spray each cut side of the bok choy with olive oil spray and sprinkle with a pinch of ground black pepper.
Step 5
Place the bok choy cut side down on the preheated grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes or until grill marks appear and the bok choy is slightly tender.
Step 6
Flip the bok choy and brush generously with the garlic soy glaze. Cook for another 4-5 minutes, until the bok choy is tender and has absorbed some of the glaze flavor.
Step 7
Remove the bok choy from the grill and transfer to a serving plate.
Step 8
Drizzle any remaining glaze over the top and garnish with sesame seeds.
Step 9
Serve the grilled bok choy warm as a side dish to your favorite grilled entree.
