Ingredients
  

Stir-Fried Bok Choy

  • 1 lb baby bok choy
  • 1 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced, or 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Peanut Sauce

  • 3 Tbsp peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 Tbsp fish sauce or soy sauce
  • 2 tsp rice or white vinegar
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup peanuts chopped

Instructions
 

  • Cut off the ends of the bok choy, then wash and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add in the oil, then the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook for about 1 minute.
  • Add in the peanut butter, water, fish or soy sauce, vinegar, and brown sugar. Mix well to combine, then allow to simmer on low heat until the sauce thickens, about 30 seconds.
  • Increase the heat back to medium-high, then stir in the bok choy. Cook until the bok choy is tender, about 2 minutes.
  • Top with chopped peanuts and serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours.
