Lemon Bok Choy
(recipe serving size: 2 people)
For the bok choy:
1 large bok choy
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tb cilantro, chopped
1 tb extra virgin olive oil
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Crushed red pepper for garnish and heat (optional)
Drizzle of honey (optional)
Rinse and trim the bok choy and cut into 1 to 1 1/2 inch slices. Coat the bottom of a pan with the olive oil over medium to medium-high heat. Add the bok choy and toss in the oil. Season with the salt and cracked black pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes until the vegetable starts to brown. Add the garlic and cilantro and sauté for another 1-2 minutes. Add the juice of the lemon to the pan, cover and cook for another 3-5 minutes until the bok choy is tender. Drizzle with honey to balance the citrus if desired. Serve while warm.



This is a wonderful variation. Thank you, I’ll try it.
