Move over, potatoes and carrots – this Asian-inspired veggie side is a dinner-time hit.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup sodium-reduced chicken broth
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 pinch granulated sugar
- 1 pinch pepper
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 lb baby bok choy, halved lengthwise
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tsp sesame seeds
Preparation
In small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, cornstarch, salt, sugar and pepper; set aside.
In wok or large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; stir-fry garlic for 5 seconds. Add bok choy; stir-fry until bright green, about 2 minutes. Cover and steam, stirring occasionally, until stalks are tender-crisp, 4 to 8 minutes.
Stir in cornstarch mixture and bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until nearly no liquid remains, about 2 minutes. Transfer to plate; drizzle with sesame oil. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
