Ingredients
1 head bok choy (about 1 pound)
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions
Rinse the bok choy thoroughly under cold water and pat dry.
Cut the bok choy crosswise into bite-sized pieces, keeping the tender leaves and firm stems separated into different piles for easier cooking.
Heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic to the hot oil and cook for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, stirring constantly, until the garlic becomes fragrant and lightly golden.
Add the bok choy pieces to the skillet and stir quickly to coat everything with the garlic-infused oil.
Sprinkle the salt over the bok choy and continue stirring.
Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the leafy green portions are wilted and the stem pieces are tender but still have a slight crisp bite to them.
Transfer to a serving dish and serve hot.
