This is one of my favorite, simple sides to accompany an Asian meal like our Chinese Steamed Fish with Ginger-Garlic Sauce or Delectable Sweet and Sour Tofu.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbsp. canola or vegetable oil
  • 4 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1/2 lb. bok choy stems and leaves, sliced
  • 1 Tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce or use any variety, use wheat/gluten-free, if needed

  • 1 tsp. honey
  • 1/8 tsp. black pepper or use crushed red pepper flakes

  • In a large nonstick skillet, heat the canola oil over medium heat.
  • When it is hot, add the garlic and sauté it for 30 seconds - 1 minute until it is fragrant.
  • Add the bok choy stems and sauté them for about 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil, honey, and pepper.
