Garlic Bok Choy Easy (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Main

01 - 1 tablespoon neutral oil like vegetable oil
02 - 8 garlic cloves, minced finely
03 - 1 pound of baby bok choy, or swap with Chinese broccoli, cabbage, or yu choy sum
04 - 1/3 cup water

→ Spicy Sauce

05 - 1 teaspoon sesame oil, toasted
06 - 1 1/2 tablespoons chili crisp or chili oil
07 - 1/4 teaspoon sugar
08 - 1/2 tablespoon Shaoxing wine (or use dry sherry or chicken broth)
09 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce, regular (not reduced sodium)

# Instructions:

01 - Split the bok choy in half, give it a good rinse under cool water, then either dry it off or let it sit to drain.
02 - Stir all the spicy sauce ingredients together in a little bowl, and leave it aside.
03 - Heat up your neutral oil over a low-medium flame in a wide pan. Add the garlic, and stir gently for about 10 seconds until fragrant.
04 - Increase the flame to medium-high. Toss in the bok choy with the water, stirring it around for roughly 2–4 minutes until it softens a little.
05 - Drizzle the prepared sauce over the warm veggies, give everything a good mix, turn off the stove, and you're good to go!

# Notes:

01 - You can use other leafy greens like cabbage or Chinese broccoli instead of bok choy.
02 - Chicken broth works great as a Shaoxing wine alternative.
03 - Play with the chili oil amount to get your perfect spice level.
