Ingredients for Baby Bok Choy And Garlic In Sweet Chili Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Garlic Cloves
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • Baby Bok Choy
  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

How to Make Baby Bok Choy And Garlic In Sweet Chili Sauce

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 2 minced cloves of garlic and 1 teaspoon of grated ginger. Cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
  3. Add 1 pound of baby bok choy, separating leaves. Stir-fry until leaves are wilted but stems are still slightly crisp, about 5 minutes.
  4. Pour in 1/4 cup of sweet chili sauce. Toss to coat the bok choy evenly.
  5. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve immediately over steamed rice, spooning any remaining sauce over the top.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
