Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 Tbsp garlic, minced
- 1 Tbsp ginger, minced
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 2 tsp miso paste
- 1 pound bok choy
- 1/2 c chicken stock
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp lime juice
- 1 tsp chili oil
- 1/2 tsp black sesame seeds
Instructions
Step 1
Wash the bok choy and lay on a clean towel to dry.
Step 2
Cut each bok choy in half lengthwise.
Step 3
Heat a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, garlic, ginger, and butter and cook for 2–3 minutes until fragrant. Add the bok choy and toss to coat. Cook for about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Whisk the miso paste into the chicken stock until smooth, then add the mixture to the pan. Stir, cover, and cook for 3 minutes. Remove the lid and cook for another 3 minutes until the bok choy is tender.
Step 5
Transfer the bok choy to a serving plate, leaving the sauce in the pan. Stir the cornstarch with a small splash of water to create a slurry, then whisk it into the sauce to thicken. Add the lime juice and mix well.
Step 6
Spoon the sauce over the plated bok choy. Finish with black sesame seeds and chili oil.
Step 7
Enjoy!
